i think you can pull it off with the right rims. no stock rims, please. not even the SE rims. if i weren't going to lower i would definitely go with 18' or 19' deep dish rims.

I think it would still look good. One of my friends has a body kit with out it beign lowered and it looks very good. He has 17" rims, just like me. Once I get my body kit I will post pictures before I lower it.
Thanks,
Paul

lowering...who knows?

Well heres another problem i have...when i got my max my dad dished out 120 a pop on new michelin mvx's without even asking me....only problem was he bought regular tires where i could only fit 15's

so i bought rims...nice ones i might add...but only 15's...so neways....now im screwed i guess...or maybe i can pull it off? how much would lowering cost...i mean like everything cause i have no idea...and is it possible to just cut springs instead of gettin all new suspension?

Thanks,
Kile

Okay so if you stay stock height, what size rims and tires do you have...you said you got the new rubber but what rims? And the size of the tires will make a difference in how pronounced the wheel-well gap is.

Personally I would do all the labor yourself even if you dont know anything about installing them. Just read up on installing for a couple days and get the right tools and keep your $200 for your next mod
