Default 2013 STX Lowered 3/5.5--and new wheels

So I got the rear end lowered more with Belltech 2" shackles to level it out with front. Looks much better now .
Also just got the new hoops put on today! 20x9 Black Rhino Traverse.
Very happy with the wheels and they look much better in person.
Note: Anyone wanting this setup beware lol. I am 4/7.5 drop now and its low. Crossmember will scrape quite easily and I need a c-notch in the very near future. As it sits its not a smooth ride. Also the Wheels JUST fit with it being that low. Tires are 265/50/20 Maxxis Marauders. That being said I love this truck

Stock:



Belltech 3(4)/5.5 (front spacers removed gets it to 4")



2" shackles and New wheels added

No notch as of yet. When I do the notch they are going to roll the fenders. The front is fine.

Bang up job man. I'm normally not a fan of red, but your truck looks bad *****! Nice wheel color/style selection too...
