Tires ordered!
Went with some Nanking SP-9 in a 285/50R20. Read some good reviews on them so I decided to give them a try. At only $490 for 4 tires, couldn't complain. Puts me a hair wider than stock, and 1½" shorter than stock. Should give me what I need to not rub the fender liner like I was last time when hitting bumps.

Not really an update to the lowering, but an update to something that was already in the works. Got rid of all my chrome caps from Billet Technology and went with white!



P.S. don't mind the dirty engine bay. I work 7 days a week, hard to keep a truck clean, lol!

Billet Technology. Once a year they have a 40% off sale. I finally broke down and got them. Had chrome ones, but been wanting to change to white. Glad I did because it was the last time they decided to do the sale.

$200 is a bit steep so I think I'll just paint them[emoji848]. They look sweet though I would really like them in my white Hemi and I love the way you did that badge I might have to copy.

Yeah, they are steep, but when you think about what all went into making them, they aren't that expensive. It's CNC'd billet aluminum that fit perfectly over the factory caps. I was leary the first time I bought the polished ones, but once they came in I knew I was happy. Plus the catch can is top notch.

Well, truck went under the knife today and had a small transformation. Was able to get my tires put on this morning, so off the lift came as well! Went down 2" with just the tires, plus 7" in the front and 4½" in the rear.
So far 9" drop in the front and 6½" in the rears.

This morning

Rears always the easiest.

Well the time has finally come. Didn't go with the drop I originally planned, decided to go with the Inez Hotrods drop. Glad I did. This thing rides like stock! Anyway, here's what this thread was all about.

And here's what a 13/11½ drop looks like, lol!

sorry to revive this thread... your sig doesn't specify 2wd or 4wd? it'd be silly for me to assume 4x4 I suppose. lol. this final lowered stance has me interested if this kit is for a 4x4. the Mcg 2wd kit and GF kits have me tentative based on inconsistent results. I can't find anything on the Inez Hotrods other than a fb page. any info would be great. thanks! :)

My truck is 2wd. Not sure if any of this will work on a 4wd. I don't really keep up with them. Sorry.
