oh for sure. You keep pissing them guys off on the other forum and word will get out and nobody will run you. I need to bring my 5th gen out and see how it stacks up against a properly ( weight reduced) 6th gen

gonna get the rears soon and also 15 inch billet rear wheels. Lighter 275 Hoosier tires that are just as short maybe a hair shorter depending on source

did they say or have you heard if the rear kit requires different trailing arms to clear ? I know the Carlyle kit does

The wheels aren’t the issue it’s one of the rear suspension arms will Not clear a 15 inch wheel. At least on the Carlyle kit. Gonna need to make sure. I would assume it will still be an issue regardless of the kit. I’m going with the aerospace as well as I already have the fronts

I went rears first only because gpi gave me a great deal plan on buying the fronts maybe this week . All I know is combined they save a ton of weight which is what I’m looking for . I don’t think the lower arms are that pricey

No they aren’t just giving you a heads up just in case.
