Each to their own I guess, depends what look you like some like dragster look some like it level. Besides If I did that on mine I would have to watch the clearance for the rear spoiler :)
No matter what condition a beddy crusing down the road will always get a long hard stare

i always recon the best way is to make a kit to make it look lower you lose nothing that way and to set the rake smaller wheels on the front 235/60R14 and on rear any size you like as long as its taller

ive always thought this.. but ive always wondered how to make it look right? and so the wheels dont bounce up and scrape on the flared guards every bump you go over?

number 13 van i had i used the jumbo flares on the rear cut off the flange that went inside the body of the jumbo and put that on the lip of the rear wheel arch then used steel rain guttering as side skirts and over sized flared fiberglass guards for the front and a fiberglass front turck visor off a volvo for the front bumper the hole van look like it it was 4" off the ground made it so the side skirt was split so when you opend the door it swung with it wish i had the pics aye
