Wheel, Tire, Brake and suspension upgrade

Post by trvlnmann »

I just finished upgrading the brake's wheels, tires and suspension. I used Sn95 parts with stock length axle's. All new parts were used except for the spindles and axles.
As far as tire clearance, So far so good. I have no rubbing. The wheels are 17x9's with 245/45/ZR17 up front and 275/40/ZR17 out back.
So far braking has improved overall.
Here are a few pics.

Post the actual links without the image tag. The remote site (kodak) appears to not allow hot linking.

I cannot see them either unless I cut and paste the URL in the browser's address bar.
