we are running coil overs in the front with qa1 12 way ajustables in the rear. set them low in the rear rip bumper off set them higher get a awsome ground pounding launch. pretty good street manors.

if your going true slicks then 26x8.5 will be enough. but good control arms and chassis stiffening will help alot. its always good to weld up stock boxes.
