    I have done a few mods to the 7. I hope to attend a local event soon.

    Thanks. She handles unbelievably now! She may not look all that low with the 35-series in front and 30-series in back but to give you an idea I have to drive onto a block of wood to get the floor jack under the front. These pics are from me getting into the parking lot at my bank.





    This is how she sits on MPARS (which I still have)



    Compared to the 132's

    The staggard 132's look way better in person. Especially the 10" wide rears.
