Re: Lowered this weekend
Looks ggod. Have you considered putting the front tires on the back and getting smaller tires for the front?

Re: Lowered this weekend
I had the same thought. Very good looking truck but it needs smaller tires all around to me too.

Re: Lowered this weekend
Your dad has a good eye for trucks . I like the fat tire look . I ran a 255/55 on the front when I had that size rear tire . Loved it but went to 20's . i wish I would have kept the 17 and 18 inch setups I had for other trucks . I am a little old school and like the look of the fat tire in the rear . Post more pics as soon as you can .
