i'm assumin by "bagging" he meant a full on custom ride height suspension. just like hydraulics, but with air. it rides nicer than a hydraulic syspension. its for looks, thats about it.

you wont "need" to remove the inner wells, if you want to stuff a huge wheel, theyll have to be removed. youll be abe to fit 20" wheels with a 35 series tire...your gonna have to go LOW profile. 18x8 will fit better, but wont fill the wheel well. 18x8 with a 38mm offset.


heres a pic with 18's, picture it slammed and the wheels stuffed. 20's would look alot better imo, but youll have to take it to a GOOD tire/wheel center to have the rims fitted before you would order them. thell be able to order a wheel with the correct offset and width so when its slammed, the wheels fit IN the wheelwells and not beat the fenders off of it.

nevermind..the pic wouldnt work....go to tirerack.com and you can see a van with different size and model wheels on it. you pick the van, the color, year, model, wheels and size and you can look at it.


those rear bags replace the springs and bolt in..no welding.

heres some bagged caravans to make you drool for a little while
