here we goooooo. rims on today baby, minor rub up front will take care of that tomorrow at work, rides way better than i anticipated and braking is pretty much the same, thanks to drilled and slotted rotors //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

I wanna see the aftermath of hitting a pothole with half an inch of tire on those, lol.

Box looks good, birch i assume? You gonna stain it or wrap it? Should stain that ***** with some chrome trim around the edges/screw holes.

na i lifted it 3" since the pic in the avatar, but ya i dont drive much besides to work, im on a permit right now anyhow cuz of a dui 3 years ago so i can only drive to work and then anything for self employment (i paint cars so i can go do estimates, go to parts stores, junkyards **** like that) plus i get my regal back tomorrow i had to drop a new motor in it so im bout to paint that and throw the 22s on it then ride that while i put the lambos on the truck and paint it up //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif its gonna be a weekend driver most likely

and the box is birch, im gonna cover it but i got a guy gonna make me some trim panels so it looks somewhat custom in the back

sorry guys i got the kit for free so they are going on for sure lol

 

[duro78 10+ year member]

you should look into upgrading your brakes. just because the lambo hinges were free doesnt mean you should put them on its 2010 plus doors going up on a big ass truck ehhh please rethink that idea

 

[MyTrunkSlamz 10+ year member]

like i said, ill do what i want to my own truck lol, but thank you for your opinions

and i was going to do a big brake kit but they want close to 2000$ so i got drilled/slotted rotors up front with some good ceramic pads, they truck stops fine actually plus wont be driven much above 45/50
