Very nice. I think it looked good before, but it's a real good investment to lower it just a few mm. Might be a bit high in the rear, but these sierraes tend to sag anyways

Hey mate,

that looks great and not over the top still some clearance.

you will love koni's when you get used to them.

Where you on Standard shocks and spring before????
i couldnt believe the difference when i did mine, but i went for koni's, arhed spring(standard ride height) and polly bushs.

what settings have you got your koni's on??

mine are half way on the front and number 1 on the back on a scale of 0 - 2.
