Okay well
My buddies hitch a ride with me since we work at the same place and they alllive within 15 minutes away (they pay gas which is awesome)

Person
A is 200-230
B is 165-180
C is 200-215

Then theres the usual weekend trips where anothet 150 lbs hopes along and we have about 50 lbs in the trunk

PLUS in toronto theres potholes

Let me know what u guys think
I weight 135-140

i thought that picture was a before picture :lawl:

you can go lower, a lot lower. at least a 1-0 finger gap. they're coilovers. having more people in the car isn't going to make them compress as much as a normal drop spring and shock combo would. you said yourself that they're stiff. it probably doesn't even move with the two extra people in the car haha.

If you go with 24.5" front & 24" rear you should have no finger gap between the fenders & tires.

Those rims make my eyes hurt :lawl:

I would suggest plasti diping the chrome window trim pieces, they stand out too much.

I thought i was exempt from scraping with two weeks of luck, but scraped over a speed bump (not even a big one) and I was going slow. Watch yourself past -2.0.

My cars lower and I can get over most speed bumps without scraping, I just bottom out on my tires, your stock and driving a truck, you just gotta know how to drive. And as others said you ain't bout that life lol
