Do you think you will need all that lift for them?

If you are worried about stability I would fit the tyres and then only have enough lift so they dont rub the arches when flexing.

And here is new front system. It will be double CrMo 45 50mm dual bar up and down under the ORIGINAL bumper! Why? Cause in this country basically tuning is NOT allowed! So my engineers are on the task to mount front reinforcements and winch somehow to the front wihout removing completly front bumper! Crazy, eh? Who would going to do that?
