Hey Carl, that stance makes the car!  Good job man.  :clapping:
The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realize it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it.

Looks awsome!  What size tires are you running front/rear?  I want that same stance.

15x8" Rear Rallyes 4-1/2" BS - 275/60 BFGoodrich and 26-1/8" from ground to center wheel lip molding.
15x7" Front Rallyes 4-1/4" BS - 245/60 BFGoodrich and 24-1/2" from ground to center wheel lip molding.


Thanks guys, I'm very happy. Again, for some reason it looks better in person, you don't notice any rake really it just looks light, hard to explain. Here is a photo below next to a mates car before the "lift". Notice how Lucy's bum looked "saggy" or "dipped" at the rear, it always bugged me. We all know E-Bodies are infamous for the rear sag.

Looked good from the front, rear and the odd shot from the side/tilted but forget the profile shot, it was "droopy". After that are 2 photos I took this morning at the usual river spot. That's how it looks in person, it doesn't stand out like it did in the other photos, looks normal in my eyes but I guess I'm use to her womanly curves. :lol:

Cody - Great to see you online mate, hope all is well my friend. :2thumbs:

When we first had the car back from the spring shop the rake was real bad vs the front. We raised the front 1/2" but it wasn't enough, we ended up going up around 1"+ to match the front (in my eyes). I could go up more and have a higher lifted style car. Another bonus is I grabbed around 1" clearance center car from all this, that makes a BIG difference! :D Much better handling too, for me, too many reasons not to do it.
