it looks higher than normal in the back is because it was taken on a steep incline. Right now i dont have money to lower it

Looks good.

I hate that rear gap.. it's rediculous.. I have a oretty big rear gap also on my stock suspension. I still have no idea what GM was thinking.

New tires helped a bit. But springs/shocks are the clincher.. I'm doing that before wheels.
