It's running a Dropmember... so many of the common issues associated with this drastic of a drop and this big of a tire have been addressed. At full dump, you do not have a turning radius (the tires barely clear the hood)! At ride height (frame-rail 5" off the ground) there is plenty of turning radius and at full lift there is all sorts of room.
I think the front wheels are little too big... I think a 20" wheel with a 27" diameter tire looks best in the front of these trucks.
