    The BFGS were nice but rubbed on everything possible. So I traded em in on some 185\60r\15s bridgestones.. much better lots of clearence! So I flipped the bjs and removed middle leaf and flipped overload. BAM! thats as she sits.
    Oh yeah and tinted windows.. 15% sides and 5% rear.. super dark.

    Im sure im misunderstanding u but the tach does work.. and I dont know if thats sarcasm cause the wheel is less than 30 bucks from oreilly. And all though a classic basic wheel I would prefer a mint original. :) but thank you
