    Well glad I posted that. It illicited the perfect response for the best product NOT to buy. Lol.

    Years ago, when trying to figure out how to drop my truck, I came across them. But never did any research or followed through with anything from them. So basically I was still in the dark about their products.

    lol, sadly I had to find out the hard way :(

    "Years ago, when trying to figure out how to drop my truck, I came across them. But never did any research or followed through with anything from them. So basically I was still in the dark about their products."

    good thing you didn't. back then AIM was hauling in suckers left and right! got as far as pushing their products internationally. After a while though their "true" nature started to show and customers were just fed up with their b.s. and RECOMMEND you stay away from them. Also IF at some point you see a positive post about them, pay special attention to the post count. In 08 several threads on various vehicle sites sprung up, claiming good experience with AIM ... just another b.s. tactic by Joe Morrow to get some sales. Posts were ALL the same, copy and pasted just posted on different sites.

    NOTE: ALWAYS DO RESEARCH AND DO NOT BE AFRAID TO ASK, doesn't matter if you think you have a stupid q or just stupid to the game. At the very least you are putting in an effort to learning/knowing what to do and what NOT to do as well as WHOM to stay away from

    Finally lowered my 06!

    Went with the xii performance street drop plus kit...SS -1.7'' drop coils in the front with Bilstein XRunner struts and 2'' drop blocks and QA1's in the rear. Haven't scraped on anything or got stuck yet so I'm pretty happy. :D

    Thinking about some 255/60/15 on 15x8's in the back for winter and something a little narrower in the front.

    Anyone ever seen that setup?

    don't worry you won't scrape much with that drop. around 2.5 plus you might start to hit things/notice parking blocks/need to watch dips/etc. Also your tires are fairly beefy so no worries there unless you go thinner.

    Thanks! I ordered my Bilsteins through the dealership.

    Gonna be moving to Oahu in about a year and a half for grad school and I'm bringing this truck with me :D Wouldn't mind going a little bit lower later on down the road but don't want to get problems with recon and whatnot haha
