Love the attention to detail. What lugs are the right ones for the gm 22 wheels btw. I hate my lugs and need a new set.

Yeah get the oem ones, I paid around $120 I think for mine but you buy them once and your done

Thank you sir. Holy cow 100 bucks yea that's gotta be why my 20 dollar ones are rusting.

Lugs can make or break the look of nice wheels. My Foose 22" rims on the AV look great, but the lugs sucked, so spending a few extra bucks for decent lugs made a big difference.

Okay so I'm at the shop ... I decided to replace the 1" spacers with 1/4" spacers, cut a bit off of the links and bump stops, and now she sits exactly where I want her at a hair under 35" in the back. I'm guessing/hoping the ride quality will stay the same.

If not take it back to stock, sell it, and start all over again :shrug:

did you happen to know what your link length is, either from ball stud center point to center point or over all length of the link and end caps?
