I know my lighting isn't perfect but I wanted to be done quick. But I'm diggin these tires! It drives so much better than with stock wheels and tires.
I hope you like it! I can't seem to find a pic I like though. I still don't like these very much. I love it in person but the pics just don't have the same effect for me.

Thanks guys. I just wish it was a Marauder ;)
Now it's getting snowed on and the drive way is all mud. So hard to keep it clean.

Looks really good. You should white out the grill too.

If you think a white car is hard to keep clean, you ought to try black!

Yea I need to paint the fender and I'm thinking of painting the grille too. I'd do it just like the marauder grille too! Why didn't they make em in white though? It'd look cool.
As for the brand of tires I'm not sure. I found em on eBay. I know it's something I've never heard of.
But I agree 100% it needs lowered. I just don't have the funds. Well, it's more that I just don't wanna get into it. I'd gladly pay someone to do it for me though.

You don't have the funds, but you'd pay someone to do it?

I was thinking someone good with suspension could knock off a coil cheaper than a garage could. Or did I do something to you that you gotta be a dick about stuff I say?

Those tires look like they would be good in the rain. I have been wanting to cut my springs too, although eaton springs has them for about 200. I can't decide. It would be silly to spend the money if cutting them is free. Just gotta find the time and tools to do it. The only thing I need is a coil spring compressor.

I actually was goin about 70 the other day during a steady rain. It really throws the water out compared to the old tires. They are worthless in snow though haha.
But I should look for different springs I guess. Maybe just buy one or two at a time if I can.

I may go ahead and purchase a spring compressor and tackle the cutting of my own springs. When I do, I will let you know and you would be welcome to come and watch/ help and if it doesn't take too long maybe do both cars at same time? I was in lewistown about a month ago... its about 2 hours from here. I was thinking maybe a month from now or so.

Hey that's a good idea and sounds like either way it would be a good time! Keep me posted.

Eh, white snow on a white car will just make it look like it grew a tumor or something. Black is waaay nastier to keep clean... :help:

I'm learning that with the black wheels. I try to avoid water on the road. My friends and family think I'm crazy.

A lot of folks here have just cut one coil off to lower their Marauder rather go aftermarket on the front springs. Adjust the watts link to lower the rear.
