Putting 26" rims on my Ext Cab S15


Recommended Posts

The right set of 22" would look. Way better than the 26" on that bodystyle.

I guess I'll chime in too, seeing as everyone likes to be assholes to the newbie. So what if you think his ride is ugly. He isn't posting ish about yours. Theres no winning on the internet with anyone, everyone has a fucking opinion..

Anyways on to the help. If you do a body lift, don't get crazy, because then you will see the frame, and no one wants to see that, unless it's 79 Cutty's Regal frame, which will be fucking beautiful. I think with 2-3 you should be fine, body lift and then another 3-4 I wanna say, you might clear with some cutting. You best bet, is to look and see how much other people have raised the "Donks" and for what rim.

I know by what I'm doing to my car most people won't like it, but who the fuck cares. If your happy that's all that matters. People drive donks because they like them.. Imo I don't but to each his own. Do what ya do bro, and don't listen to the haters.

Edit: you could do the lift and such, just read up on the internet and read instructions.. Lifts are piss easy. You throw blocks, or lift springs under there, some shocks and steering corrections and ya done. Read up on lifting a truck for big mud tires and its the same, except with smaller rubber and bigger rim..

WHAT HE SAID!

lower tuning is just hard. I was surprised how loud 145 sounds at 35hz, and how quiet 145 sounds at 50hz.

Okay so here we go, to answer the question as to how much lift, it would depend on what tire you wanna run but you will have a tire height of between 33 and 36 inches, just get a lift kit made to clear a 36 in tire

26's will be mexi-flush. meaning the tires will poke out, unless you do over-fenders or custom wide-body. Since your truck is a square body style idk how it will look.

NEVER HEARD THAT TERM BEFORE! :rofl::rofl: :rofl: gonna have to use it at work sometime

This thread is fail. I'm going to say it because your vehicle is plain ugly. Everything from the paint, to the wheels, to the stickers, the dice, the wheel gap, the mirrors, and I didn't even get to see the rear or front end of the vehicle.

Get rid of those horrific wheels and put the stock ones back on for christ sake. You could have grabbed your self a few paint cans of one solid color and that truck would look better then what it is now. The dice on the window? Are you serious? AHHH man those wheels are eye gouging and that paint is horrible. Why would you do such a thing? Your truck looks like a prostitute gave the car a blow job with starburst in it's mouth.

TL:DR, repaint the car one solid color. Throw wheels in dumpster and put stock wheels back on. Remove stickers, and dice.

Then dump the shit out of it.

I had to say it. <_<

Okay boss lets see your ride. Does it have 20inch LEXANIS?! No you fucking cunt bag, as i said before I DONT GIVE A FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK if you like what im going to do or not.

I win mad trophies at truck shows, could you? No.gif

My rims alone cost more then your whole audio system you ignorant piece of shit.

How many times must i say whats in bold? 10+? 15+? 20+? I heard SMD has people like you on the forum, i'm from SSA.. i figured i'd give this a try because it has this Topic thread choice.

You have a helped me 0 in this thread. I'll tell you what.. take your honda civic and have a nice day. cool.gif

I think donks are sick, do i give a shit if you do? No, here let me say that again.. shok.gif
