Simple and clean...looks great. I think a 30 series tire on the rear will solve your porblems and help the overall look. I am running 275/30 on 10" wide wheel with no issue on coils.

Thanks guys! I appreciate the props!! Im very happy with her now until she gets a fresh paint job.

I agree on the meaty tire size! A smaller profile is gonna be a must! I was able to grab the rear tires for just $150 for the pair so I just jumped on em!!

But im gonna get a smaller size for sure! For the look and to avoid the rubbing issues!!

Nice and clean, looks ideal for daily driving.

$150 for a set of rear tires, I'd take it any day.

Any plans for going lower?

Well I keep telling myself im gonna keep it simple. But these mods are in the works: Exhaust, S&S Headers, Custom Headliner, Chrome Trunk Bar, And Turn Signal Rear View Mirrors......lol Hopefully I can stop there! But modding is an addiction!

I agree! I have a show truck. And this was supposed to be my daily, Now im looking for another SUV for my daily lol. Its impossible for me to leave a vehicle alone. I have to change something and we all know what one mod leads to!! ha ha

Any plans for going lower?
I was waiting for that question to get asked! Actually im happy with the way it sits, But coilovers have crossed my mind......Who knows time will tell!
