So, I am guessing that you are way ahead than the current pictures.

Curious, what route you took or are taking to fit the wheels at ride height.
Right, I'm pulling a Carroll Shelby. Same truck, just painting it different colors to make it look like I have a fleet . I test fit the rims just before I painted it blue, which is currently where we are at. Took me awhile to find a used tire the size I wanted for mock up. Didn't want to buy new tires not knowing if the set up would fit. When I found the wheels on eBay, I used a cheap universal wheel fitment offset tool (pictured) to make sure the they would fit with the 5x5/ 5x114.3 adaptor before the purchase. Once they did, it was all about tire choice. Everything did work out at ride height. Had to modify the inner fender to allow the truck to lay completely aired out.
