    I bet they won't get to bad. You don't hit trails that much so they shouldn't be bad

    ....lowered a 4x4 that makes no sense. At least keep a 4x4 stock height and get a 2wd if you want to lower it

    I didn't like the look of round lights under my bumper, so I got flat, rectangular ones and am using the 30° spots on the front of the truck.

    I don't like lowered trucks, but everyone has their tastes I guess. And 4x4 is Meh, I'd want my lowered to be all wheel drive

    When you get LEDs on the front your gonna want to change headlights haha. I ran with LEDs w/o HIDs and hated it haha. I don't mind lowered trucks, if it's a street truck. Don't take a 4x4 and lower it. It's dumb. Give it to me and lower my prerunner haha

    Do you have hid headlights? Ive got expensive bulbs outta the old lenses that I need to put in still. You should ask them to trade! Maybe they will so it would be cheaper for them!

    I always figure it's them making the payment, not me. So I let people do what they want :p

    I can actually see the point in a lowered 4x4, to an extent. Living where we have snow until May, you either need a fwd car and live in town, or if you live out in the boonies you need a 4x4. 2wd trucks don't fair well in the winter up here at all, so I can see why some guys would get a 4x4 to lower if they're constantly driving on snow and ice. (Edit: and they want a lowered truck, but can't afford both a lowered truck project and a 4wd daily driver)

    With that said, most of the people on this site that have a lowered 4x4 live in like Florida or something so then yeah, absolutely no point in having a lowered 4x4 haha

    If anything, I'd get LEDs not hids, they blind people
