sorry for the non-stop questions... how many degrees when driving? and how's the ride with air suspension? im considering it just because it seems the most practical with the ride height i want.

About -3 front, -6 rear.

Ride with air susp is great. On the highway it feels like I'm floating and in the city it's fine as well. It could stand to be a little more soft during the city driving but it's ok, nothing you can't learn to deal with. Certainly not any worse than you would get with regular progressive springs with that much of a drop.

Plus, I can always fix my dampening issues with adjustable dampening coilovers in the future

Insane looking! I guess thats the only way to run that kind of offset and still have close to spec tires. Nice pics!

They even left room for a BBK. Some old pics.

I understand your reasons for not going wider, but that doesn't look aggressive enough with your widebody IMO.
