I hate to say it but if its pro-street I think its a little high.I personaly don't like to see much tire...How much adjustment do you have left you can flip flop the lower shock mounts.But all said do you like it thats all that matters.

Tony..seeing how this is posted in pro street..33x18 and a backhalf would be in order to fit that bill.
Imo..anything less is up to the individual and how they see the total package.
Anyhoo..dropping the ride height will look cool from the side and fill the wheel well up...but the Pro Street guys flat out rule from the rear with the steam rollers/wheelie bars and chutes in my honest opinion only.

29"? ok then, it needs to be lower. A lot lower (4"?) if you have room in the wheelwells.
