    I got this to haul my RC planes to the park. Chrome reverse and 1" whites or Chrome SS Cragars with black walls. THX

    SWEET !!!!
    My vote goes for the chrome rims and thin white wall.
    Lucky for you is it is way cool in any of the tire and rim combos.
     
  6. I think you should leave it as is. If not you leave in taxi, if you can’t leave in a taxi leave in a huff or if that’s too soon for you leave in a minute and a huff. Hehe.
     
  7. Leave it alone….Are you still on Yellow Bullet or Bucket or whatever it was….

  21. I also like the way it looks now. But gray Torque Thrusts & blackwalls look good on anything in my opinion.
     
  22. 3 inch drop in front
    4 inch drop in the rear

    If you’re going to keep it a pretty stock grocery getter (and that’s cool), I’d suggest a little suspension work and just add some WW.
