Whoa Nelly!! That was 4x4!
Much better, ...

What's the tire/wheel size now?
What color bulbs are in those side-markers?
(Will ya might have a bit of a problem with that color when the lawman sees it?)

^thats what it looks like. the tires have a lot less meat on them, so it makes the gap a tad bit bigger. plus the pic was taking from a lower stance, so that too might add to the look.

but it does look great. are your shocks stock? if so you have inspired me to get some prokits. but how is the ride quality compared to stock, i've heard some bad reviews.

Wheel size: 17x8.5 up front and 18x9.5 out back. Tire size: 255/40/zr17 in front and 285/35/zr18 in back. They are blue bulbs....I have the stockers in case I get hassled about them.

You are right...they are low profile and then add in that they are used pretty good. Ya Im running the prokit with stock shocks right now. My stock springs must have been worn pretty bad because the ride quality has actually improved. Ill be on the lookout for a used pair of Koni's or something similar in quality to upgrade to.
