Just got home with new tires on the panel. Goodyears triple tread a/s 225 50 17.Don't know if I like them or not. They are alot noisier than the oem Firestones! I haven't had them up to high speed yet. They are considerably wider than the oem's.I doubt the fuel milage will be as good. Time will tell. Got 30 days! John

I'm leaning toward Canuck motorsports drop springs myself. Make sure to post some pics and what you think about them once you have them installed.

tinted the cargo windows, made a third brake light stencil (which doesn't show on camera well....need to darken it a little), attempted to tint the rear window, but soon found out it's not as flat as i thought........gotta get strips now

The outside glass area is alot bigger than the actual piece needed inside the glass for install, setup a Halogen type shop light inside facing out the glass so you can See the inside black painted shape, After you heat shrink, Trim the pattern piece to just beyond that black area on the inside, from the outside.
Use Stainless Steel Snap blades to Avoid scratching your glass.
Watch some Tinting vids on youtube for more info.
I did mine with Cheap stuff, thats alot harder to Shrink, and I got it done.
Only problem, you really can't see the Skulls from the outside since the rear glass is already tinted, and being a Panel no rear windows to help light up the inside.
You can just barely see them from the outside, the light has to hit just right, and at night can't be seen unless the headrest monitors are on.
I might remove it, still deciding.
