going to put the 8.5’s on the rear now and offload the 9.5’s.
Then ill revisit options later in the year when Simmons release the FR19-1 and look at smaller diameter all round potentially.

didnt say they werent stretched. just not overly stretched as i also hate that look.
looking like raising it slightly will be the immediate solution and see how that pans out.
