Sounds good.

On the tires, I'd first check on what wheels you have. On mine (specs listed above in post #5), the front wheels are 1" narrower than the rears (9" vs. 10") so the 255s in front and 285s in rear make sense. I don't know how possible it would be for me to put 285's on the 9"-wide wheels (and not interested to find out).

Oh I see, yeah I was actually gonna buy new rims that at 19x9.5 and tires 285/45r19 cuz I heard they both go together. But hopefully they all fit without messing with the shocks and struts lol.
