First, raising the rear with bigger tires. Doesn't that put even MORE weight on the front of car?
Second, I used to like to drive fast on country roads. I left my car's suspension 100% stock, just got a bit wider & better tires all around. The car handled great without it being a scoop for scraping up road kill. On my old 350, I installed 17" wheels with bigger/wider tires front & back. Result=a good stance with plenty of rubber for a smooth & great handling experience.

I don't understand how anyone can enjoy their car when driving it over a small rock or a piece of wood will tear the front & underside of the car.

I don't get it when I see people guiding the driver just to drive up a driveway

I have only one picture (the rear)in my home page. No spacers & the car looks tough & clean looking. I wish I had more picks. Maybe later.
