    It really is a huge difference, makes it feel like a full sized SUV

    The track width difference between 92-94 and 95+ Troopers is about 2"...probably the same for the VX unless the wheels have less backspacing
    I was figuring 4" since the lower ball joints on the wide stance are a few inches longer than the ones on the RS

    Red Isuzu logo really helps the Herculiner look btw, good pick.
    Nope, no cutting, not even a plastic trim for the 33s, and I could see squeexing 35s with minimal trimming, a helluva lot more room under the RS fenders, as for the red zu emblem, good idea on your behalf, and I think it looks great like that. I did screw up the decal, it has a few wrinkles. I need to get a new one and do it again...

    Hence the single far away photo I guess? Where did you get the decal? Must be aftermarket I guess? Can't imagine anything OEM being that big...

    Hmmm, might give it a few weeks and it may even out to an acceptable level (especially if it has a chance to sit out in the sun.)
