Hi all,got a used 21 ridgeline blavk edition a few month ago, and decided to add a bull bar. Got it installed and ground clearance suffered to the point I had a hard time parking in some spots. So I got a 2 inch lift from Traxda, as well as bigger AT tires (BF Goodrich KO2, 265 60R18), and the ground clearance issues went away. A bit noisier than before due to the AT tires, but the higher ride and overall ride quality is amazing. MPG did go down slightly as expected. I put a lowpro truxed bed cover, which should help with MPG, and it looks pretty classy if I say so myself.
What else would look cool? I'm thinking 1.5 inch Bora spacers and OEM side rails. Anyone with experience with those?







A bit about me, I drive the truck to bring kids to and from school, occasionally hauling or towing appliances for my rental units, and the annual hunting trip. Other than that, i work from home.
