Well, i Installed my 1" drop DJM springs and i got new tires. Right now it is a 3/4 drop but the wheels dropped it another 3/4" so basically its just shy of a 4/5 drop.

Finally got some wheels! straight up trade my stock rims/tires for these rims/tires. buddy of mine was going to sell his s10 within the year so he didnt want to buy new tires and since my old stock rims had new tires the deal was done. 40% tread left.

Tires are 245/45/17s going to buy some 245/50/17s within the year or so or and drop it another 1" up front.

Amp is rated 600W RMS @ 4 ohms and 1000 RMS @ 2 ohms. Fi Q 15" in a 2.21 Ft^3 sealed box.

I decided to redo my system, i completely hidden all the wires going to the amp for that stealth install.
