Default Unleveled 09 H3

Hi guys my wife's h3's got 24 1/2 on it's rear and has 21 1/8 in front. Do I need to give the front more lift? It doesn't actually look bad but what do you think?

We bought it as it was with 305/45/22 Falken Japan tires as well. Mine is 08 black and wifey's 09 white.

Thanks

I think fo r her it would be personal taste. If she is just using her h3 to commute/ shop leveling wouldnt be neccesary however they do look better cranked a little not nec. fully leveled. you can go up to 22.5 in the front and it would be safe and look great.

85_305, where are you when we need you.

RaYoSeKiZ tees it up for you & throws you a belt-high meatball right down the middle of the plate & you're sitting in the dugout! What gives?

Oh hell, I can't resist, I'll pinch-hit for you - LOSE THE NERFS & CRANK THE TBARS TO 24.5"!

I've been trying to see what 305's look like on an H3. I know 83-05 probably disapproves, but I was thinking of going to that size tire.

I would appreciate pictures of your wife's rig with the 305s if you could please. Thank you.

This is a tough call, but my all-knowing advice would be to crank the tbars and lose the nerfs. That will give that HUMMER a wicked stance.

I've never advocated tunes, but there is certainly nothing wrong with them.

Come on now.. give me some time here. That question was only asked 12hours ago, and even though I "have plenty of free time", I'm long-gone at 1am. But you are correct in your incredible guess on what I would tell him to do.

Why oh why would disaprove of some nasty 35's? Tell me thou art kidding, thyne? 35's would be the very next step after cranking the tbars and losing the nerfs. Or at LEAST a nice set of 33's.

Time to go learn how to read metric tire sizes 83-50.

305's are 33"

Here's a picture of mine, leveled to 23 1/2" with 33" Duratracs

Those look good Bunger. Will help me decide to drop to 33s or not. Greatly appreciated!
