    Just found tires... The 295/35/20's are much more adorable. Don't ask me the brand because I'm sure they're mediocre but for all 4 in 275/40/20 and 295/35/20 is $678.00

    Nope, Monday I'm dropping it off to a friend who works for arrigo Dodge. They're painting the front of my bezels F8 green and side markers, front and back F8 green.

    Then my friend and I are removing the grill August 20th to put in the scatpack grill and this way I can take my headlights and fogs to a mutual friend who's a authorized installer for Lightingtrendz. This way the grill only comes off once, and I don't need to pay his shop the labor to remove and retrieve the headlights. Praying it all goes smoothly

    Just a heads up that 295/35/20 is going to be slightly smaller/shorter than your stock tires or 275/40/20. 305/35/20 is just a smidge shorter.

    Having said that they will have less chance of rubbing once you are lowered

    Also sounds like you have a good plan to get things done, and I don’t blame you for only wanting to take the bumper off once

    You think it'll be noticable when lowered? I thought with the 35 in the back, that's the wall height so whether it's 295 or 305 it'll look similar, no? I know width won't really be as nice with 295.... But I guess it might not compliment the fronts as well

    Not sure if it will be noticeable.

    So for tires. In this case 295/35/20. 295 is the width, the tire is 295mm wide. The 35 means that the height is 35% of the width so 295x.35 will be the height of your sidewall in mm. The 20 is obviously wheel diameter

    Ah I forgot it's percentage... So yeah it'll be a shorter wall hmmm God this gets so complicated at times when you're trying to budget. Might just have to bite the bullet on the 305's

    Obviously cheap Atturos are nice but those Firestone tires have great reviews and might last longer so it could be a wash

    That's what I'm leaning towards. The Atturo's don't come in 305/35/20 that's what put me on the hunt for tires in the first place haha
