Looks great but man I cringe at the thought of running short rubber like that around Houston, these streets suck so bad. I bent all 4 Centerlines (20's) on my old truck when I had 245/40's on it. They were fixable but still it bummed me out and I started running more tire.

My SS is at stock height and really want to drop it but the wheel/tire combo I have is totally incompatible with any drop.. pretty sure the wheels are gonna stick out, wrong backspacing for drop. I'm not totally married to this wheel choice but they're in great condition and I do kinda like them..

I had a drop kit from Tony (TBSS) but traded it for a new-in-box Corsa catback.. lol

your intimidator looks really clean.. wish my SS was that clean lol.. I hear you about those Houston streets.. when I lived there I would drive like an old lady to dodge those pot holes.. and back then I was driving around on my billet 22s on low pros and 4-6 .. now it’s been a while since I sold them and now I’m on 22s reps until I can find another set of billet wheels that I like..
