wow, sweat new look.

What kind of clearance do you have between the UCA and the tire with those stock rims? I have a set of 305-55-20 MT ATZ's on KMC wheels that I might want to switch over to stock rims.

I love those stock wheels with big rubber on then, looks great!

BTW, in the third pic, did your dog just tinkle on your tire? That always angers me for some reason.

Just measured the clearance and its ~3/4 inch between tire and steering knuckle. Check with VTHokie, about 20 inch stockers and clearance...I think the 20's have more backspacing so may be a little tighter. Here are a couple pics showing my tire clearance between Knuckle and UCA:

I'm thinking about the same kit for my 2010. I assume the 5" inches you gained was in the front from bumper to ground? Are you happy with the quality and ride? Please feel free elaborate. Thanks
