I like these gm wheels, they sell them with matte black inserts and chevrolet center caps

22inch. But the back had got to come down at least a couple inches

It would drive me nuts but I was too stupid to understand she just didn't know the basics. She was actually trying to learn. Now I can listen to her talk to customers and she not only sounds like she knows what she's talking about she actually does.

Pretty proud of her.

Nice. Mine is getting better. She used to know absolutely nothing at all. Then one of her co-workers had an alternator go out and didn't know WTF was happening and the wife gave her the "how can you not know that?" look. I was beaming with pride.

That is with 22s on? Why is the back fenderwell so high?

EDIT: I really like those wheels also.

They sit the back high for some reason. There are some rear leaf spacers that I can take out and maybe rear lowering shackles.

I want it to sit level

That's not my truck. It's just one that has the wheels I like.


I've been so busy I haven't even had a chance to take a pic.

We are going drinking tonight so it may be tomorrow before I get a pic unless we stop at the gas station on the way lol

Lol my youngest is 3 and about a year ago I saw him go pick up a butter knife and try to unscrew the wheels lol.

I need to remember to take a pic of the old chevy before I deliver out this weekend. I didn't have anything to do with building this car. But when I get to their house I'll shoot a pic of their chevelle I helped them with.

She told me she researched and read forums for days~ I told her she did good, she was worried it was wrong.

I had actually been shopping the double rod end ones (these are poly/rod) but these where a little cheaper and will make for a better quality street ride. Glad I ended up not pulling the trigger the other day.

That's weird. I guess I haven't seen it with the new ones driving around. I don't think my 2011 does that but I've had a compressor back there for so long that may squat it a touch.

Nice work!

won't that suck up dirt and water/crap? I guess if you drive on clean, dry roads all the time it won't matter.

On top of being a SoCal car, this car likely won't be seeing any time in the rain.

And yes, the filters will certainly need to be changed/cleaned far more frequently than a conventional system.

But one-off cars have one-off problems. I didn't take a pic of it, but there's a service port on the other side as well.
