Default From dropped to leveled

I decided to remove the mcgaughys 4/7 drop kit and the 24" reps w 275/30/24. I added a leveling kit up front and now has 20x12 hostile wheels with 305/50/20 nitto 420s.

Both looks were great I am sure the leveled stance is much more practical day to day. I bet the weight of the wheels is about sixes going from 24 to 20.

At least when it was dropped, the tires appear to be under the fenders...The new deal looks like a biatch to keep **** off the paint.
