lol I'm the same way. Since I got my wheels, I haven't been able to let her get dirty. Washing after every time I drive it with wet roads, or taking the wifes car when it's raining/snowing... even though I really want to have some fun with the new LSD...

So, did you measure to see if you did in fact get 2" in the rear?

Also, how is the ride quality now?
