I have the 8 and 10-inch combo, too. I had my wheels powder-coated in red, then installed 245-60's in front and 275-60's in the back. With hot rod trim rings and police caps, I get positive comments, too. Unfortunately, the paint hasn't been done yet...waiting on Dad's estate to come out of probate in late September...money without any assigned debt....at long last.
Your truck is beautiful. Thanks for sharing it with us.

Thanks. I should have gone with 245's in front as you did. That would have given me even more rake than I have, so I guess I'm good. I tried to get 6" in the back, but because I have leafs, it was a no go (they hit the bed bottom - using 4" drop leafs and drop shackles - the shackles are good for another 1" or 2" - had to go only 1" more).
Would love to see your truck with the red rallys. Any pics?
