Thanks, it wasn't too hard getting it lined up like I thought it was gonna be. I wanna lower it but can't right now cause of the 335's in the rear. It's either keep the huge tires or get normal ones and lower it... I might lower it and get some drag radials

335s... means you have a 12" wheel? I have an 11 back there, lowered and can run 315s no problem. If you downsize just a tad you can have the best of both worlds!

He's not lying, I got stalked by a cop on the way to check his seats out... I actually turned off because the cop kept looking at my car in his rear view (the cop was in the lane to my right, one car ahead of me) and started going slow as ***** to get by me...

I turned off and he went back to a normal speed, waited awhile then headed on to Steve's place... He could have just been checking the car out buy my guess is that it was because of the no front license plate... Regardless, I wasn't going to find out

Anyways, back on topic your car is looking SICK Can't wait to hear your cam through the CME !!!
