Got some basic tire and wheel questions for ya'll.

First of all, whats the difference inch wise, in the stock height of the 03/04's and the stock height of the 99/01s. I'm getting ready to lower my 99 1-1/2" and was wondering if that would make it same height as a Terminator, or lower.

Secondly, I'm looking at putting 18x9's in the front, and 18x10's in the back (currently running 17x9's all around). I believe right now I have 275/40 on my 17's. Taking into consideration the lowering, whats the biggest and/or whats the 'best' size tire to be running on fronts and backs. I dont want to worry about rubbing, fender banging on bumps, or any turning problems.

Any help would be appreciated.

lowering your car 1.5" will definitely make it lower than a stock 03/04. i would say that stock for stock the 03/04's are about 3/4" lower than 99/01's.

I have an '01 lowered about 1" with the same size rims you want. I run a 265/35 on the front and a 295/35 on the rear with no problems.
