No, like me, he drives where you destroy your car if you are dropped. I went back to stock suspension after incurring over $1,500 in damage.

In this case, it's function over form, or better yet, common sense over vanity.

Good looking rims, mr. kensan.

Good morning all!

Museum District/ West University area. The way the streets are set up, every driveway has a very steep approach. Broke both fender liners getting in and out of the driveway. Even with the lift back to stock, I have to back out of my driveway. Just cracked the right fender liner by taking to steep of an approach into the driveway last week.

The crowning blow came when I hit an uncovered access hole (mini manhole), blew a tire and cracked all the paint on the front bumper when the car slammed to the ground and caught a ripple in the street. That was on Bissonnet between Kirby and Buffalo Speedway.

This is the reason I stay away from Houston! Every road I've been on has been horrible in the 350.

omg.. did you contact the city? that kind of stuff should be paid for by the city... I know when I was in Tucson, a few of my airmen had some issues with crappy city roads and the city paid for their repairs...

but I know what you mean.. I have to drive really slow, and at a rediculous angle to get in my drive way
