Those wheels looks freakin' awesome on your ride!!! Nice choice.... told you the 285/25 would be fine.

Are you running a 10" or 10.5" rear?

this is just MY OPNION but i would rais the back to match the front! i know its the fenders that give the illusion that the back is lower when its actually sittin even but i like to see the same amount of tire front and rear. to me it looks like the back is squating.

The height of these cars vary so much from day to day driving,that it is hard to get the exact same measurement every time you measure it.Seems like my car will vary .5in when I do.

Somewhat,yes.Drive it around town for a few miles then find a spot that looks to be flat and measure it or get an eye for where its sitting.If it looks good then roll with it.Might just be my car but it seems to sit different from tim too time.Not alot but just enought to catch my eye now and then.
