    Wheels: Isuzu 16x7.5 Snowflakes
    Tires: 255/70R16 Dunlop Radial Rover RVXT

    The tires look pretty whitebread in this image but they're really sharp in person. The Snowflakes have a neutral offset, resulting in the whole unit sitting about an inch and a half proud of the wells. Much thanks to Riffraff for help in selecting them.

    Snowflakes are nice, that is what I have in the garage for the wifes Trooper RS mudders. I now have 4 sets of wheels and tires to fit the 2 Zus....lol. Two sets of ATs, one set alright, the other set less than 1K miles. Two sets of mudders, my Kevlars and her treadwrights. Bring on the Zombie revolution!!!!

Like an inline fuse! I also wanted one of the super flexy IFS kits but can't afford one of those for what I do with the truck.
    Ball joint flip does not improve wheel travel, only facilitates alignment. As for the bumpstops, be careful, they are there for a reason. The protect the CV shaft from impacting the lower control arm, I believe Uncle SAS has a story about that.

    The SFIFS only works if you lower the front back down. No sense in forcing 3-4" of wheel travel, that is a waste. When I installed mine, I moved back to near stock height with 34s. Minimal rubbing, and some minor pounding/cutoff wheel in the front.

    I used to be like you with the cranked up front end. Crappy handling and crappy ride offroad. Without a locker, you just greatly reduced your performance since you a very likely to have a front tire off the gournd (rock crawling, if for mud, I suppose it doesn't matter). I love the look of it jacked up, but its kind of like having fancy skater shoes,they don't really help you at all, just make you look cool

    LoL at the skater shoes

    I have thougt about lowering the front, maybe a half inch or so because there is still a tiny bit of the grinding noise when I decelerate or let off the gas. Only for about half a second. I may try stuffing a little more greast into the inner boots to see if that will quieten them down some. If that doesn't work I'll just have to drop it 1/2 till it stops. But I don't want to, cause I love the look and it's probably only ever going to see beach/mud for off road duty. I'll dream of Moab, and probably never make it that far.

    Well, I could post pics of my stock wheels and the low tread driving/road tires attached to them.....but I thought that'd be kinda boring.

    ISUMO its just so perfect.. lol
