It looks very nice with the coilovers but I don't want to drop my car more than 1 1/2 inches.I'm putting 22's (NO SPACERS) with 285/35 or 285/40 and I'm afraid that it might start rubbing in the inside front fenders.
Besides Canadians streets a 100% nicer than Chicago streets full of potholes and huge speed bumps all over the city.
I'll post pics before and after once my wheels are here.

If you are talking about the skid plate, you can get those on Ebay.

Sorry but its not a skid plate.
They are bumper covers( front and rear) as pictures showing.
The front looks like a metal but its hard plastic and goes upper about half way on the front bumper.
Both of them give the truck a more sporty look but also protection, specially parked between cars.

These set of covers, found them on a UK website while browsing for the wheels but can not remember which site.

It was a lot back and forth questioning with the bumper covers, but at the end, I'm very happy with the results.

Tires YOKOHAMAS 265/40/22's I was concerned that they might rubbed inside. Next set, Im doing a 285/40/22's is enough space inside without spacers.

Wheels are EVO shipped from UK (waited for months due to US Customs)
Running boards (headache installation) brand "BLACKHORSE" but look nice and very sturdy.

SUV was been lowered about 2.5 to 3 inches used SPORT HR springs.

Interior 8inch DVD headrest.
If anyone interested to see what it looks like I can provide with more pics.

Next equipment to be purchased BREMBO perforated discs

Do you have the TDI, 3.6, or 4.2 engine? Wondering if the front engine weight affects ride quality when using with H&R sport springs. How much drop did you get after installing the H&R springs?

Also, how is the ride with the 265/40-22's? Why upsize to the 285/40-22 for the next round of tires? I wasn't sure if the 3-4% increase in diameter mattered as long as all four corners had the same size.

Please post pics of your interior DVD setup. I was thinking of waiting for someone to release a blu-ray headrest player before considering this mod.
