IMO, 35's, 513's, and 6spd were an ideal combo......difference was night and day for me......also great platform for the 37's.....glad your happy...

Where did you get it done and would you mind telling how much they charged? You can PM if you would prefer? I'm close by and have been trying to get some pricing from different places. The cheapest I found was around $900 labor not including parts and fluids.

4Wheel Parts in Atlanta quoted me $1800 which included 3 year, 36,000 mile warrently. That was parts, labor, tax, and everything.

Mine was at Northridge getting 5.13's on Monday....currently babying it as well. Can't wait for this break in period to be over so I can see it's full potential.
