you can still put a fat tire out back if you lower it, i think you should go pro-kit with tokiko d-specs also

Make sure you get a 3.5" drive shaft, the 4" will rub on a lowered car. This is something to not cheep out on like I did, mine still needs to be balanced...

I am using the CHE lowers w/ relocation bracket, so far so good.

Sway bars I noticed a nice difference, but the brand is up to you... I'm happy with the steeda one I purchased.

Hope this info can help. Good luck!

Thats a nice list of mods man...anyway, this is OT, but what exactly does the anti-roll bar kit do? Sometimes when im driving my car, for a split second it will feel like im losing control of it. Like i just hit a patch of oil or ice. Its fking scary.


EDIT: Do i need a bumpsteer kit?

You could add a underdrive pulley to the list...

Why are you buying a front sway bar when you just made your car handle worse than a decapitated duck with some of the other stuff?

Also you'd need about a thousand horsepower to make use of most of this setup, Is that what you're after?

It makes no sense to start lowering your car either as that will just be counterproductive, but I'll agree to go with the 3.5" shaft.

Hope that helps.

The anti roll bar keeps it from having body roll when you are turning corners or sharp curves on the highway. As far as the front sway bar i just thought if i was gonna do the rear suspension might as well do the front one. Yeah i think a set of pulleys sound good.
