You are pretty decent at this stuff.

Thanks!

I have about 10 years of installing car stereos, alarms, etc. and about 4 years of installing home theater and security surveillance stuff.

Been playing with cars since I could walk (dads a mechanic) and customizing all my cars since 15 years old (16 years now)

This morning I installed my 5" drop springs and airbag helper kit...

Installed - Airlift Helper Bags

I'll get pictures of the drop once the springs settle. It already lowered the rear almost an inch from the 5323 springs.

Actually, it was an old lady. Her son is out of the country for a while, and they are moving so she sold his rims. He wanted to get rid of them anyways...

no pics of the drop with new wheels yet?


Sent from my iPhone 4g using Tapatalk

Nope. just got them home about an hour ago. Gotta go to work soon. Plus my front camber kit gets put on Thursday (in 6 days), so I figure I'll just wait till all that's done to get some good pics.


I might slap those rims on this weekend though, we'll see...

I like the current wheels better than the U2s. :imo:

I like the current ones as well, but they're a pain in the ass to clean. Like SERIOUSLY. Never had a harder rim to clean.

And there is also a lot of pitting and other marks on them. They look good from 5ft away, but once you get up close they're horrible. They're literally no good. I tried to clean them up the best I could when I got them. I talked to a chrome shop and they said it would be cheaper to buy knew ones than to fix these. So I'm going to take them and have them painted or powder coated black and then sell them.
