1. What is the best way to remove mudflaps?

2. How can I cut off the front bump stops without removing springs or moving struts?

3. Can I just cut the rear bump stops while spring is still on?

4. Should I get 225/40/18s? [Right now Im riding 215/35/18s]



lets hear some answers! I know you have some.

 

okay two ?'s can be solved by manning up and removing your springs lol. Seriously it is not that hard though.

 

Thing is, I just got an alignment today.
Not wanting to spend 85 dollars next week for alignment.

man up with 85 dollas for me!


How about actually answering the questions?

 

question4
the side wall will be a lil bit bigger but not too much seeing how the difference is like 35 to 40

and those rims will hold 235 probably but 225 is a sweet spot and i have stock ss sc rims on 215 so when i get tires going 225 cuz 235 is pushing it on the stock rims width
answer: looks SEXY fatter tire

 

i did. remove em. cut bump stops done. there is no other way...

 

you can fit a 245 tire in there i have them on mine

mudflap = mark with an exacto knife or razorblade while on the car take them off the car and finish cutting on the scribe you made

bumpstops... can you get to them with a sawzall? or take JUST a hacksaw blade and slip it in there... its a PITA but it should work

 

Wrong! lol, the difference is not a 35 to 40, its a change of 35% of 215 to 40% of 225
