painting the truck

also had a question about painting the truck with the rough plastic front bumper and the side can that be painted like the rest of the truck and what would have to be done to make it glossy like the rest
 






I ran 265/35/22 on my Sport Trac without any modifications. I lowered the rear two inches and the front an inch to even it out. Even with lowering it, I didn't run into any problems. Now I have 24s with 255/30/24s and still don't have any issues. What offset is the wheels you're going to run?

265/35/22 is 29.3" and 265/40/22 is 30.34"
