Drop just puts it back close to stock after the 21in wheel.

I don't think the op asked....how do you know he doesn't have stretched bags and lowered so you can't even see the wheel to know if they match or not. Don't be such a dick!!

just sayin, mis-matched wheels look terrible! Sorry that offended you so much that you had to call me such a profane name while sitting behind your keyboard you badass! I'm sure your mouth wouldn't be running if this conversation were in person!
