    Exclamation tires and wheels HELP!

    what up VXers!
    I recently purcased a 2000 proton VX. (FL) I want 33"s! i really like the terra-grapplers. But i'm trying to keep the stock 18" rims. Has any one done this? what tires?
    i have read about the torsion bar adjustment, and the rear springs, (i called isuzu about the springs, and he had one rear spring listing for 98+ troopers but he did not understand where the "912 medium duty" are these the correct springs?/ 154.00 each).
    if i do need to drop to 15"s what are the specs on the rim(width)?
    tire recomdations(33" tall)?

    HELP PLEASE!
    Dave
    P.S. just like to say that this site is incredible! so much info!

    The Trooper springs you want are made by OME (Old Man Emu), not Isuzu. They will give you about 2-1/2" of lift in the rear. For additional lift, Darlington Offroad also makes a poly spacer in 1" and 2" sizes.
