I'll try to get some daytime pics tomorrow, but here she is.

SSC lowering springs, wheels are 20 x 8.5, tires are 245/35/20. Short dogbones should be here tomorrow. I need to wash and wax her, but the weather has to get a bit warmer for that.

Looks great!! This is what i needed to get an image of how mine would look dropped with 20's. Did the ride get any worse than what it all ready is riding on 20's?? And what brand of shocks did you use??

Now those are nice 20's - simple, clean, little bit of a lip but it's not too huge. Looks good man, get us some daytime pics!

Actually, the ride has never really gotten worse. I went with the SSC springs and the KYB GR2 stuff, all from zzperformance. The ride is still smooth and she hugs the road beautifully. Just got my short dogbones today, will get them installed tomorrow.

As it settles in, it will be more even looking
You'll probably drop an other 1/2"-3/4"

It's also the way my driveway is right there. We're waiting for the guy to come do the driveway, then it will be nice.

And yeah, I had to trim the rear fenders. They were going to roll them, but because of the way the outer and inner fenders were welded, it was easier for him just to trim about 1/4" off.
