With the car slammed that low, notice how the control arms are no longer near vertical, and are quite upward from center now?  That's gonna give you some interesting handling at the limit.  Been there before.  Definitely sketchy . . . even on a double control arm setup like we have.

But damn if it don't look good.

Critter did you get those yet, I told him to send them to you so that you could try them out for a while.  If you don't like them let me know and we can sell them Miller.

Were they staggered 18X8s in front and 18X9s in rear? or just 18X8 all the way around?

SA-
If they don't work for Critter, he told me he would give them to me to try.  I should have them in about a week.  If they don't work out, then we can sell them to Miller, but I think they might work for the Mail box stand I'm building. I will keep the weld marks small incase anyone actually wants to use them on a car.
