lol, that's messed up...

I am getting LT's, and from what I have read, Pacesetters are the best to go with as far as clearance when you are lowered. I have the Eibach Pro Kit, so we will see how that goes...

What he said man, can't compare apple & oranges, LTs already produce on average (15-22 rwhp) and if you bump it up a level with stepped LTs it's worth a few more ponies on top of that. Take a look at KOOKs, not cheap, but top of the line.

Depends what you are looking for

LT´s will make more power and max flow at high rpm where you want them to max out

while Shorty´s will improve power at low rpm where the engine spends most of it´s time
