something is wrong there, I have never seen an SC that high before. Even with brand new shocks it should not sit that high.

Nice looking wheels.

PS- paint your brakes

i'm with him ^
that is insanely high.
the wheels look good except for in the side pic, because it actually looks lifted...wheels are outside the wheel well curves...it's strange

butttt, look slike you did a good job with offsets, and that will be REAL HAWT when you lower it

Check if your swaybars are installed correctly. They should be in the up position. If not, that could jack up the ride a couple inches.
