Lots of changes-tires,rims,coilovers, grille (pics)

Well this has been a long time coming and I finally got time to get some pics. I got me some new Sway away coilovers, some mazzi hulks with 35" mud grapplers, and a roush grille up front. On with the pics.




These are coilovers for a 6 inch lift, and they are cranked about 2 inches and my angles are pretty straight. I'm not sure what the deal is, I was expecting to get the 8 inches with em. Just some fyi in case you might go with sway away's.





Aight, one question. I know the back is about an inch or so higher than the front, should I take out the AAL and level it or leave it as is? Any comments or suggestions are welcome and hope you guys enjoy.

Looks good, leave the AAL and get a PTM grille surround(Too much chrome with the grille)

How much were the sway aways? And are the grapplers really that loud? I love those tires, they look so badass.

I got them from JesseRohr on here for 900 new in the box. The tires are loud, but I love the sound and they ride better than my toyos I had.

The stance is perfect IMO, leave it. I think the grill looks good too. I would look into the roush lower though. I love those wheels and tires, good job.

I should probably get on the list for one of those, but funds are pretty tight right now.

Appreciate the comments. Anybody got some info on where is a good place to get some paint to PTM my surround? Its paint code JL and I don't think they carry it in auto part stores in rattlecans.
