So... full images will be shared soon. But I am now rocking 285's up front and 305's in the rear. Nothing like breaking in new rubber.

That must put a hell of a smile on your face!

Saw the video of the new wheels and tires. Looks awesome man! You're making my decision between Summit White and black more and more difficult. Keep the videos coming!

Yes. The rear drivers side had a rubbing issue. We had to re-route a cable harness. Overall it depends on the tires you go with.

Interesting... actually I thought that the front tires might have an issue with the steering swing. I love the wide tire set up. It will be great if it works with your future body drop.

I am thinking with the wider tires, might need to go 30's over 35's. With 35's you have no room to lower it.

I like the wheel gaps. Depending on road conditions, it doesn't look like it needs to be dropped.

Hey man, I've been watching a few of your videos as well. Glad to see you're having fun modding. While i can't honestly say that I agree with everything that you're doing, as long as you're happy with it, that's all that matters.

I'm really anxious to see and hear about the ground effects kit. If you could ask them about the install and why it took so long, it would be great to hear. I have a feeling that it's no longer available on new orders because they're changing to another supplier or a problem. I've also heard it's on back order if you try to buy it as an accessory.

Also, have you considered the installing that intake manifold that's available? I can't remember the exact name of it, but believe it was ASI or MSI Atomic (sorry I probably butchered it).

My body kit consists of the new stock number, they are hard to get as they basically trashed all the original ones. Supply and demand... they will appear in more frequent numbers soon.

I am going with a ported stock intake manifold over the atomic one. Going with OEM should allow me to retain the warranty.

Would love to know what about my mods you don;t agree with? Just curious is all as I value opinions... as I am not sure I am even sold on my own.
