only shackles at the moment, mainly because my old ones were knackered and i'm saving for a proper lift kit anyway!

The option I chose was cutting down the gay extended shackles so they give about an inch of lift, then stuck add-a-leaves in.

Gives about 2.5 - 3 inches lift, and I've got wheel spacers as well

Then you can fit 235x80r15s on with no rubbing :)

Although, it will make it slower so you might want to go with 215s or 225s to keep some of your acceleration
