    Just got my grant wheel in my truck! (i'll post pics later if anyone cares to see)
    Last night I ordered my DJM 3/4 kit. They're only about 10 miles from me so I should get it in a day or two.
    Then comes 15x10 with 3.75 inch backspace cragar v-5's with some 225/55's. After that I'm debating to do fender flares, but I don't know if i'm going to go through with that. Then, hopefully by the end of summer i'll swap in a w56-e 5 speed, because right now I have that junky 4 speed automatic tranny that I don't know the name of off of the top of my head. Then maybe, JUST MAYBE, 1UZ swap. MAYBE. Right now I'm just going with the flow. :)

    My MPG right now is so horrible because they're so heavy! Right now I'm getting anywhere from 15-17 combined. Also, I do mainly city driving and I drive really hard though so that explains a lot. Also, my truck is running that really garbage 4 speed automatic. After I get all my lowering Components in I'm gonna do a 5 speed swap

    You would think so lol. But also, I have a four speed and a heavy foot. So that plays a big part.
