Not usually big on side pipes but have to admit it rock with the black rims and black paint, good looking truck.

Front - 15x7 with 255/60 (soon to be changed to 225/70)
Rear - 15x8 with 275/60

Front is dropped with spindles and springs - about 5"
Rear is flipped and I am about to add a 3/4" lowering block to that to bring it down a touch more.

I agree, a bit lower in the back it will match the front, nice truck, any more details.

I bought this off original owner in 1985. Now it's just been sitting in front of my house for the last year.

It's a 2.5/4 with 235/75/15s on it. 15x8s. I'm wanting some wider tires on it, but these are still new

Nice color combo. Probably one of my favorite of the two tones.
