Spot the difference

samvora · 07-13-2022, 02:57 PM

Can anyone spot the difference between the top and bottom photo? Obviously except the brightness and sharpness of the photo itself and the dirty condition of the car

Tyres?

Brake dust?? Wheel curbed??

Slight drop

Ah I got it! top photo is in a garage and the bottom photo is outside! 😛

Honestly, the only thing i notice is the curb rash.

No curb rash on my wheels - they spanking new…just dirty and the places that look like curb rash are the cleaner part of the wheel without the brake dust hahaha.

So the difference is, if any - Installed the H&R springs I bought from Ben @ RGsport last week hahaha. Barely notice any difference…too photo is stock and bottom is with springs installed! The gap is so huge on these trucks that it is almost not worth installing springs of any kind unless you are going the coilover route. But honestly in real life I do see it dropped the 1.4" and the guy said that that it should settle a bit more by a few mm so let's see! Hopefully my 22" wheels will also help close the gap a tad bit.

Coming home after ding is repaired. May powder coat the wheels full gunmetal at some point - $450 a wheel and may be less expensive to buy a new set.
