Default Any pics of 2.5 bb with the standard X 17" tires.

Thinking of putting a 2.5 teraflex bb and rubi shocks on my X in the next few weeks .I still have plenty of tread left on my original 255/70/17 .
Will this look like crap with these tires?

I'm in the same situation. I need to buy wheel spacers (or new black wheels!), and was going to get an adjustable track bar also. With the cost of all that, I can't afford 33" or 35" tires yet, so I'm hoping it doesn't look too bad for a few months while I save up for tires.

Default 2.5 Tera BB with shocks

2.5" Tera BB with Tera shocks (stock springs). I did add spacers as per Tera recommendation.

My 2 dr looked a bit funny with the stock SRA's once I put that kit on. I got the shock exts' but you will still net the same height. I was only thru 20k miles on the stock tires, but I ditched em anyway for the Duratracs that got mounted a week after the boost was put in.

No, the tires look like crap with or without the lift. At least mine do!

I think with the 17" it won't look too bad considering. If you had the little 16", then yes, they are so small comparatively speaking.
