Default Thanks! No probs at all, but...

I've heard there are some clearance issues with the front brakes if the pads are new. If you haven't worn the pads down enough, there may be issues, but I never experienced it (put em on at about 16K miles). They went on just like the stockers - no spacers or anything needed (I think the offset is 35, but I'm not 100% sure)

Default Thanks, bro...

I had my shop do a 1 in drop all the way around, and it's settled a little bit since. (I don't know what the stock fender height is, so I can't tell you an exact number)
