    Ill post one up later on today....fronts dropped till tuckin tires(about 3") and the back is stock, waiting on my blocks from streetacos...

    Edit: she sits pretty low up front with the 60series, plus the tires are stretched so makes it even lower.

    It'll be worth it, when i got mine the rims had all red dirt stuck on um. Hit it with acid, scrubbed with a scotch brite pad and polished each one for about an hour each rim.
