Re: got a new truck!!!!

do you have any more pics of the truck with the 22s installed? If youre truck was to tuck the wheels how much of a gap would you have before rubbing the outer wheel well? I want to put 22s on my truck also with 295/35/22 tires just wanted to make sure another 1/4 wider would fit? Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks Michael from Arizona.

you can run that tire out back. there's a good 3/4" left in the rear with the 285/35/22's mine rubbed at first in the front and then i pulverized the inner lip(problem solved).

Re: got a new truck!!!!

Nice! Sweet looking truck. The stock front looks great. Are you going to leave the step bumper on it? That '70s truck in the background look cool too!

Re: got a new truck!!!!

I like the black and polished look. It's just the washing, buffing, and polishing every day i hate! I have to cover it up even in the garage and wash it before i take it out. She's definitely high maintenance.
