You definitly have to lower it....


When I was up in Boston this fall I saw some homeboy in a black gen 2 with 22" or 23" chrome wheels and no drop. It looked like complete sh#t. But, then again, why lower it when all you wanna do is show off some chromies to da hoes.

Definately lower it. I have my snow tires on right now, which are a 31.5 " diameter tire. And I think it looks goofy riding way up like a normal truck.

I know its less than an inch difference, but it still bugs me.

Whats the minimum drop that i could pull off? I know the road is going to feel harsher with the 22's as it is....dont want to lose too much road quality....
