Hey Orr. Any pics of your car while it's staged? I'm curious to see the gap between the right rear fender and tire while the car is static as opposed to pictures of it when you're into it.

There really isnt much gap at all. Maybe 1-1.25" at most. It is lowered nice and the tall tire fills the well

You wouldnt have to lol. They laugh at your football airbags, you laugh cause your car runs 9 seconds with them. Plus its a cheap way to find out if airbags will work before you spend the money on them.
