    X2. After fiddling with my suspension a bunch (cut springs, eibach springs, front coilovers and rear springs, now coilovers all around), I will just go coilovers all around from now on. The height adjustability is great and I don't have to be pissed when the ride height still isn't where I want it.

    Idk how expensive it is to do coilovers on that truck though.


    Just a little 500 whp V6

    Im used to having a tire that works for you for power and theres some 1500 hp cars in this area getting down on a 275pro radial
    Plating the frame is no problem.

    325's are MT ET Radials. Since it's for fun and not a dedicated class car I'd rather run the size want.....which is wide.

    I just realized I am missing a very simple fix. They offer rear lowering leafs for the s10's. Since I have stock s10 springs in the rear I need to try to easiest route first and just got a set of Summit or Belltech lowering leafs. Crap. I need to stay up late more often!

    That is an option with lowering leafs for sure


    A 325 radial will do much better on 12-13" wheel

    Also the 275pro out hooks the 325 radial
