Yea I will be sure to do that. Now it's time for some bigger tires. My 35s look small enough already. They are about to look even smaller

This might have already been said, but in my opinion, get some coilovers to fit in the lift (I got custom length icons) and crank them to 8". U will lose down travel, but at least it keeps the geometry of the stock components the same. I had the stage one and it screwed everything up and had bump steer like nobody's business!! Avoid the spacers. Coilovers are expensive but rebuildable and last much longer. That's just my personal opinion based on my experience.

Oops. Just finished reading the thread. Definately crank them. For my coilover upgrade, they came with 2.5" extra lift, so I already have 8.5" lift in the front. So you can probably just keep them there. Great choice. Did you get the pro comps?
