That is a good looking tire...and I don't usually like the staggered rubber look.

Re: Bring dads truck from 1995 to 2010 Project

put in rear shackles for pops today for 1 more inch drop. IM thinking about lowering the front more and doing the rear for another 1 inch to really tuck it. These 305 50 20s are stuffed in back

Re: Bring dads truck from 1995 to 2010 Project

Dig what you did with your dad's truck Tony. Anything new? Was searching for you on here when I came across the thread. Also, I gave your info to another member who's interested in some drop parts for his fullsize.
