I love the wheels and tire sizes! Great job! Can't wait to see it when its lowered.
Yeah, basically this. With the staggered height, the percentage is as close as i could get to be the same....

Sorry bout the title, i guess it is a bit misleading, i have not lowered it yet, will be putting the springs on this weekend. I have considered doing a red lug nut for color/contrast. Just dont like the chrome look. So either black or red.
