The oem look is just too conservative in my eyes no disrespect to the many who run them! I actually think the slides look best in 22s. Any bigger it looks like an Oregon trail ride.

It is a gt3 with the ti con rods, dry sump all of it! Lol

GT3 looks sick man. Yea the oem look is really conservative which is what I was going for. I had kmc slide 24's on my old ride and loved the look but when you get to 24+ the ride quality/stopping power on the brakes/turning kinda goes to poo.

I don't think my old ride looks like an 'oregon trail ride' with 24" slides :chicken::

Almost done. I am very happy with the results. I love how the slides in this fitment have a concavity to them. They look right sized in my eyes and retain enough of the incredibly smooth hyrid ride quality.

I had to go with 285/45s as the 305/40s rubbed at full lock on the sway bar on one side. I believe the hybrid may have a tighter turning radius than base as it does have a completely diff power steering system. Highly recommend the Toyo proxes st2 tires.

Thanks!
