I was out today and happened to run upon a chance to do a side by side comparison with someones Disco. Not sure what is up with the gangster lean mine has in the pic from the rear it doesn't set like that on level ground, might have been where I made a big u turn to swarp in there where it was setting.

No spacers on rear yet? I really want to see skinny tires with spacers

OOH. doesn't even look like a whole 1.5" looks very good. I asked for the same spacers for christmas but then said never mind because i wasn't quite sure.

I really thought it would have made a lot more difference than it did, nice handling and subtle width I guess. I changed so much at one time not really sure if the lift or the spacers helped it to handle better. I do know that these skinny tires have no desire to go much faster than 65mph "which is probably closer to 70 with the speedo difference"

Those are 235's? I would think it'd rub at all with 235's and a lift

It wouldn't have rubbed without the wheel spacers I added. Moved the tire out 1 1/2" so it came right up into the lower edge of quarter and the corner of the bumper cap.
