That’s a good thing since it’s your truck and the only opinion that matters is yours. Fortunately we all have different tastes or we’d all be driving the same truck and this forum would be useless for sharing ideas.
Mine is still on stock XL 17’s and in my opinion it looks good but I’m going up to 20’s because after looking at hundreds of lowered trucks I think they fit the truck and fill in the wheel wells better. I'm also staying with a paint-to-match because I've always liked the Lariat 20's and the Limited style.
Love what u did w/ the steelies. I did something similar to mine.
I haven't posted my truck on here ever since i dropped it. Well here she is sitting on a Belltech 3/5 drop on the Ford Lariat stock wheels, tires are 275/40/20.
Many more modifications are on there way. I'm just undecided between performance or looks.
Tell us more about your exhaust setup- that looks Sweet!
Oh and I also added the belltech rear sway bar, man what a difference that made!! Highly recommend it if you are goibg for that sport truck feel.
Good choice. Adding a rear sway bar is probably the biggest “bang for your buck” for improving the handling. It practically eliminates the under steer with the stock front bar.
It says belltech. Blackpony did you have any troubles getting it aligned? I have my coils set @ 2" of drop but 3" looks perfect!
i did the 3/5 drop on my 2010 and had no issues getting the frontend aligned at
4 Wheel Parts and as far as i can tell they didn't need to elongate the holes.
2 years later it still drives straight down the road.
Been meaning to put a pic here of my truck. It's a 4x4 so it sat high. Took the rear block out and added 2x4 oem shocks and u-bolts. Has 3" lowering shackles and belltech struts set @ 2". Still has a good amount of rake so I'll be adding a flip kit soon. If anyone here is on the fence about belltech coilovers, they ride way better than the stock ones. More pics to come when the flip kit gets on here and the factory 4x4 goodyear tires go bye bye.
