I envy you, that is the perfect setup for a great hot rod stance. You gonna bag it or go with springs?

If you can post or send me a couple side shots of the truck and rims at the same angle i could photoshop it for you and drop it too. It would give you a good idea what it will look like

Just alittle heads up, you may want to test fit them. If your runing stock 6 lug all the way around, the hub site will most likely be different sizes. I ran into this problem with my boyds. I ended up going disk's all the way around and having my rear axles turned down.

:agree: Had to do that to fit mine as well. Make sure you check the center-bore of your new wheels. Most of the newer wheels have a bore that is too small for the axle flange to fit inside. Had to pull my axles and have them turned also.

where did you pick those up? how deep do your pockets have to be to pick up a set of those? there sharp. ,)

they would look good with some low profile, white lettered tires.

Re: new rims!!!
 
got a really good deal on the rims, the only problem is the rear backspacing is 6.5" I will have to run spacers. the front fit perfect with 4" bs
