^^ Looks great, how well do those 275/60's fit? Icouldn't decide on 50's or 60's so I went with the 50's because i'm lowered. Your setup looks awesome though.

Thanks! My car is not lowered and the 60's are a tight fit with the ground effects.

I did have to do the BFH mod, but no fender roll. If I do have more then one person in the car and hit a good bump the tires will rub for a split second.
