go 18x9 with 255/45/18's they dont effect the speedo at all. There is more than enough rubber on the ground for me, but i guess its up to you. but if you go that way it doesnt change the speedo and you dont have to worry about rub. Yeah the xcal will correct for it, but it depends on who you get it from, from what i read some places actually disable the user adjustability feature...... so its your call

 

i would definately go with the 18's

 

how hard is it to install the eibach pro kit, has anybody done it themselves without and lift? not incredibly mechanically inclined, but I can usually figure things out. Does it require any special tools, or specific knowledge, or is it pretty straight forward?

 

From what I have been told and from what I have done in the past its pretty easy. You can do it in your garage with jack stands and a floor jack and basic hand tools. You will also need two spring compressors from what I have been told. Take your time and be very careful. I don't know if these are under pressure or not but I know for a fact that others are and have even killed people because they didn't follow the right safety procedures. If anyone has the answer to those feel free to inform us all.

 

cstigger04, where are you in that photo, it looks awfully familiar?

 

That was 17 March 03 about two hours prior to crossing the berm, from Kuwait into Iraq

 

I thought it looked familiar. Hasn't changed too much since then, looks wise anyway. Two and a half years later we are jumping off buildings with them. Anyway, glad you made it back.

Thanks, I am glad you made it back too. That was the first time, the second time I stayed in the green zone or the International zone what ever you want to call it.
