Anyone have experience going darkside on a Lowered 98 Valk Standard. It now has 11 1/2" shocks on the rear and i was wondering how that might affect the fit of a 205/55-16.

I have 11.5 Progressive 430's with a 205/55 Yoko A048.  Love the setup.  No problem mounting. Just a few playing cards of space between the tire and the shaft though.  I did do the nut cage mod and the strut spacing mod before hand just in case.  Any other questions, feel free to ask.

Hey Goose,
I cut off about 12 inches to each pipe.  They definitely sound different.  My buddy has a Valk with Cobras so I can tell the difference.  My cut down versions are much deeper and louder.  I dont run any baffles either.  Heres a clip I did of it to give an idea.  Though they sound better in person.
