The wheels look pretty kick ass grats man, but yeah the chrome is clashing a little bit with the black rims, I think once you get those changed black it'll go real nice together and also the back rear does look like it could use a drop, what size tires did you end up going with?

I too have a non-sport. I am doing OEM Sport SPrings with Bilsteins HD's. I just found some used Sport springs and am waiting for the cash to purchase the shocks. I will let you know.

if you are going to swap shocks and springs...just get some coilovers so you can get the ride height just the way you want it....

+1 - I went with H&R's on the stock springs and my ride isn't horrible, not even close. I like the ride, it's not bouncy or too stiff. The next step will definitely be coilovers since the replacement shocks and new springs are not that much cheaper than coilovers. Also, yes Phil the wheels look REALLY good (at some point I need to post pics of my "new" wheels - they have been on for a few months now)
