Dude I love those Strip wheels. I had placed an order for those in black 4 years ago only to find out my local dealer couldnt get them. I was so bummed. Cant wait to see them on your car.

Think I need to go suspension drop somewhat to close the gap now. Any thoughts?

You need a drop for sure. Why did you go with the 35 tires in the rear? Wayyyyy too small of a sidewall, those are mainly made for new edges and pre-2005 body styles...
