(rear) 295-30-18
(front) 265-30-18

Wheels: 18" TSW Valencia w/ 2" adapters all around. Fenders could be rolled, but I'm trying airbags first. They just barely rub on the outside fender in back on inclines (just need to be careful)

Brakes: Willwood 12" in front and 11" rear.

Nope, not lowered. I'm not sure I like how they sit when leveled out or lowered. I really just enjoy the stock stance. Lowering this would definitely require fender work in the rear.
 
I can't wait for the front wheels to get here so I can put the car back on the ground and roll it outside.

18x11 Weld RTS rear with 5.7 backspacing. But, the rearend is not stock width (but it's close). Frame is notched and stock wheel wells are stretched about 1".
