i have just done the 2 inch body lift and flares (already had 2"spring) and i am running 35 x 10.5 pedes and they only scrub out on the body occasionally.

only catch is that it makes your turning circle the size of a footy field.

running the 35's stock ratios and turbo 400 auto it revs at about 2500 - 3000 RPM , im not 100% because the speedo doesnt work properly.

i want to get 4.11 or higher later down the track to give me back some take off and 1st low is a bit too quick for going down steep hills
