Pics with new wheels/tires (56k warning!!!)

ok guys, first of all, id like to thank Dave at DB Truck Customs for an UNBEATABLE price on my MHT Fuel Boost wheels and thanks to Discount Tire Direct for an awesome price on tires. At the same time i also added a set of Top Gun Customz longer control arms to re center my front axle as well as give me more clearance for full lock turns.

On to the pcs

First of all is pics of fender height with worn out 285/75R16 then pics after are after mounting new wheels/tires. fender pics go in this order: Right Front, Left Front, Left Rear, Right Rear

Before new tires









After new tires










On to truck pics!!























































again, a HUGE thanks to the AWESOME UNBEATABLE pricing for my wheels from Dave at DB Truck Customs and a huge thank you to Discount Tire Direct for my tires!

So whatcha guys think of the new look??

workin great Ry! i kinda "stoplight raced" a buddy and revved it up in 3rd and kinda slipped it out, needless to say the tire went up in smoke and i had to almost immediately grab 4th - theres a real nice black mark on the road now that i didnt even intend on making, it also was chirping through the first part of 4th haha!
