Of course........anyways I will not go lower to compensate, in case that you decide to upgrade to larger rims later..this is why patience is important, chilled out and relax......<IMG src=smileys/smiley16.gif border="0"></P>

I dont recommend you to do that like I said on the prev post, anything lower than 1.5 " will be Ricey...just wait, get the money for larger rims and do both at the same time.......anyhow, are you already working on some mods or still baffling here....

No man, priorities are: </P>


</P>


#1. Gears + Short throw shifter (Steeda)</P>


#2. Exhaust, incl headers</P>


#3. Springs</P>


Delete the pulleys, they can cause overheating problems or undercharging of your battery, all for a mig 3-5 Hp gain, now if you canfeel that diff in gain you are a better man than me. Have Nitrous or blower in your mind too.</P>
