I LIKE the big feet/ little car look. The only thing that would cause me
to consider it being a 4x4 is the height of the car of the top of the
tire, as in fender gap.

I had some 205/60/13s on the car when i got it and have 195/60/14s on
the bottle caps. 

Get used to it baby, welcome to MarkOne-vile.
