    I'm good with the 33s, just want better gearing. Picked up a locker and figured might as well bang it all out at the same time.

    Might as well go 35s with some better gearing! Trust me, nothing like stuffing a big back tire in that pretty little fender of yours

    haha nah I'm good. This is still my DD. Plus if I go to 35s then I have to worry about trimming a lot more shit, and tires will be more $$

    Well for my stuff (gears and a locker) I got a great deal but then it took something like 6 months to get parts in and and another 3 or 4 for him to install. He said things would be in, I'd go by the shop and they wouldn't be there. He never called me back when I left phone messages, there was a leak in the locker after I finally got it installed so I had to go back and get it fixed because he didn't check it after he installed it, then had to go back again because he kept my lug key.

    The who thing was ridiculous, I don't know how he's still in business to be honest. He was a nice guy if you could actually get a hold of him it was just an awful experience all around.

    100% agree, that group buy was a real disaster sorry, it really put a bad taste in my mouth about group buys and put a bad taste in your mouth about us. After delay, after delay, lost orders and wrong parts it really was not a win for anyone. Once again sorry for the outcome.

    Hey man sorry for the bad experience, I tried my best to get you handled once we had the parts and realized there was a problem. Is everything still good now?

    You did get me in pretty quickly after the parts came in, it was mostly waiting on the parts to come in. I haven't had any trouble since the initial leak, thanks.
