Default Ruff 954's are ON! PICCCCCCC****

1 - Cars lowered on stock bolts. (looks like a 4x4)
2 - Next step is Zip-Lowering bolts and bilstein sport shocks (Install is gonna happen first week of April)

3 - Tires are Toyo Proxes 4 Plus.

255-35-19
295-30-20

stock wheels with tires weight in 190lb
ruff wheels with tires 240lb

not bad considering that they are 2 inches bigger


Thanks to Alex from "The Speed Depot"
