New Wheels & Brakes...Etc... Finally Done

These have been on for two weeks now...Thanks to B-Man for the help w/ the install !!

Did dimpled/slotted rotors, stainless lines, Hawk pads & installed the new wheels.

The wheels are D-Forged 3-Piece DF-11's 20x9.5 in the front and 20x11.5 in the rear...after looking at the clearances I could have easily done 12.5"-13" wide in the rear...

Front Wheels have a 2.5" Lip and the rears a 4.5" lip..

That does look awesome!!! I'm a fan of color matched wheels.

OT: I noticed your rear bumpstops are really close to the axles, if you cut them in half with a sharp knife it would probably help the ride a bit.

Those look really nice. I'm still waiting with cash in hand to buy your other wheels though.
