    Well there isn't any poke really at all.

    I think you're doing it right though, it looks good!

    its weird cause of the way the rear is shaped and it has such a "taper" toward the bottom, it sits nice at the top of the fender but toward the bottom it sticks out.

    a few people said i should have went with a smaller spacer in the rear...

    no, it flows well with the body lines from the top. If it didnt poke out on the bottom it would look awkward

    so there are other people with S-10 blazers lol j/k. but if thats as low as your going with it, it looks awesome but if your planning on going lower or putting bags on it then you may want them in a little more. oh and as always "pic's look great".

    When most people say flush around these parts it typically means poorly fitting and/or improper tire sizes with a good chance of retarded negative camber. Your truck has none of the above symptoms.
    Well done.
    thank you!

    the spare didnt bother be at all untill i used my flashes and did a rear shot LOL cause other wise you cant see it! the side moldings are staying cause they go with the look of the truck, they match the wheels perfectly. i know, i need to just get new rotors and paint the calipers and all that rusty shit. its not AS noticeable in person but the flashes just bring it out

    yeahh this is as low as im going....i like my nice ride and the only way im going lower than this and it still ride nice is to bag it. if im going to spend 3K+ on this truck its going to be a V8 swap.

    I think it looks good. That taper isn't bad at all. Just take a look at my sig and be thankful for what you got to work with, lolol. Just think of every car that has posted in the pic forum that has to run rediculous camber to bring the top of the tire back under the fender and to be able to turn. (Not to mention the rediculous stretch too). This is by far the best result of a "fitment" thread I've seen on here.
