What do you think of posting all of the information such as Rim Sizes with Backspace etc, Tire Sizes, Axle Width, Lowered or stock height and other mods to fit the rims/tires if needed?

Most of that information is already known.

17x9/17x10.5 (I'm sure he bought the set that is made for fbodys). 275/40/17 and 315/35/17s, stock axle width. Looks like stock height as well. Also some people may need to do the BFH or roll their fenders, but every car is different.

4x4? I like it the way it is, 1 inch lowered in the front and stock rear height ... whats wrong with that? If I like it who else needs to care... this thread is not meant to be a pissing contest so please comment if you like but do not trash this thread. If I wanted it lowered and scrape everything I drive over then I would, but not what I want to do. Thanks

I'm pretty sure he wasn't trying to trash your thread. Sounds like he was just messing around, while at the same time throwing out a little advice. I was thinking the same thing. It definitely doesn't look lowered. Give your girlfriend her purse back, and don't be so sensitive

Wow dude, Take it easy!!! Your car looks great with those wheels!!! If you don't want opinions you should not post on an open forum. These cars typically look much better lowered even a 1/2 to 1 inch.. That is all I am saying!! I certainly respect your right to have your car any way you choose. With that said, Good luck with your future Mods.
