Nice! What backspace are your rims?
I like the look of the 10" rim but, i think my backspace is too much. Are you getting any rubbing while turning or under compression?

tx-hop. whys my truck have to be posted my yours. lol the ransho and pa look real good man makes me consider a 3inch body lift. the backspaceing on my rims is 3.63 there is some rubbing on the bottm of the back fender flare but nothing I'm conserned about. but I did trim more then most people would probable like to.
Frank. the lift I have is 2 inch daystar coilspacers in the front which no one knows why but they lift the truck 3 inches in the front and rough country add-a-leaves in the back.
the only thing I don't ike about these tires is they say 31's but only measure out to 30.3 via procomps sit. but they also say there 12.80 wide and I wanted my tires to be real wide.
any other questions let me know for the 2wd guys I did take pics of the upper control arms all though they didn't come out real well showing the gap between control arm and frame.

Bueaty truck conig. What did you have to trim to get them tires to fit? Overall how high was the truck lifted over stock? How does it ride/Handle? Any noticeable loss in power? That is the look I am after as well for my Dak. Looks awsome.

jc whitney list a set for our truck those are the ones I ordered.
thanks for all the replys. I'm thinking of takeing my fender flares off so my tires will be way out the side. I was going for a real wide look.
once again appreciate all the compliments.

Conig: Just watch when you do take your flares off there is double sided tape on the back side of them. just watch you don't pull too hard or you could put a crease in your fenders. but good luck truck luck nice!

Message:
on a 15x8 with the right backspaceing or the factory rim you should have no problems. I had 265-70-17 on my truck before wich is a large 31 almost 32(31.8 to be exact) and barely had to trim the backspaceing was 5.00 and they would rub the frame. with a 4.00 4.50 on an aftermarket rim it shouldn't rub anything.

Your truck really looks good. Did you have the black strip on the hood painted or is that a factory thing? So your going to take off the flares? I'm tossing the idea around myself of putting on fender flares but I don't know yet. I'll have to do some trimming on the front to make them work and it kind of defeats the purpose of using them.
Wouldn't want any other!

the black stripe is vinal. my friend rear ended another car springbreak so now im going to need a new front bumper and probable a grille. sucks.
any signshop should be able to do the stripe a body shop did mine but it came out nice I'm not sure if they had someone outside the shop put the vinal stripe on or if they did it themselves.
