Well, it will be soon. Winston here, live in Kilmore but I get around like chlamydia, bought myself an '08 TB48 late in december, have been slowly adding bits and pieces to it over the past few months. Bar work and snorkel is being done this week, suspension in a couple of weeks then a bit of gearing/diff work coming up next month. The rest is all electrical shenanigans and cosmetic stuff.

Anyways, just introducing myself so you know who i am when i ask how big a lift I will need for 35s!

Thanks guys. I'm sure I'll have some questions pop up along the way.

So, um, what size tyres can I fit with no lift?

I'm running 33's (285/75 R16) with factory ride height on my 2004 GU III.
The car came with that setup from previous owner.
I haven't done any serious off roading as yet, so no problems with those size tyres with no lift.

Hahaha thanks mate, I was stirring. I know what I can and can't fit with what I'm putting into it.

What did you end up fitting? 33's or 35's?
The lights look good, I'm interested to know what you did with the circular parkers in the headlights.

Yeah. Had some custom made a while back from Micks Projectors. They had the same white angel rings as picture but I had blue devils eyes in the centre as well. They look seriously cool but also illegal and since I spent some coin on getting an engineers certificate that decided to ditch them.

They do look very cool, but something I personally would only consider after the long list of other mods I'd like to get done.
