Re: 31 inch tires
Curious to know which Tire Craft did you go to, and was there a specific person you dealt with?
Hows the ride now? I've heard that cranking up the torsion bars on other vehicles really messes things up....have not heard the same for the deli. Would love to see some pics when you get a chance.

Re: 31 inch tires
I was at thge tire craft on the north shore(behind red robbin) and delt with both managers,brian and cant remember the other ones name,who were both really nice and helpful.first time iv walked into a garage of any type and they actualy wanted to help me not them selves. we tested out whether it would fit or not in the wel, as well as on the existing stock deli wheel (made it clear while this was happening that i wasnt paying for that and they were said "we know were just as curiouse as yourself") so they did the cranking and some trimming and they fit perfect.now driving at first was alittle weird you can deffinatly feel the 2 inch heightening in corners,im not really feeling anything different in bumps though.the only BIG different aside form my deli being a million times awesomer is that getting speed up is harder and if its a windy road keeping the speed up.before the lift i was usualy driving home at 100 to 120km( i know its fast but iv drove the stretche of road 2 tiem a day for my whole life and i drive home at 11) and now im doing 80-100km.
also tire craft looked into it for me and got the specs to do alignment for delis, i didint get one but they called to tell me they could do it the next time i come to the city so for any one whos looking for deli alignment now theres both west coast and tire craft.
ill try to get some picture up but i still havent really figured that part out yet

Patty,
Make sure you get the alignment done soon, the tires wear quickly when it is not done - speaking from experience of course
