    Awesome. Nothing makes people look twice like a car like this making a corner at speed lol

            That's a sweet lookin ride. Me personally I prefer 15" tires for that smooth boulevard ride.

              I'm still considering keeping stock rims and going with some BFG radial T/As... It would look damn good. and i'm a huge fan of the little wheel big tire ride as well. stopping is nice too though I guess...

                Yeah it really depends what the traffic is like where you drive. I'm pretty rural and the traffic not too aggressive so i can still float along like it's 1988

                        Was the float on your sending unit gone? Like disappeared? Mine in my 90 was, which looked about like yours.
