I have definitely thought about going that direction. I can buy 8 inch wide stock steelies from Summit for like 80 dollars each delivered. A pair of those along with my current skinny fronts would do the trick.

I also have a set of wide and narrow rallys at my shop that I've been saving.

But, mainly, tire prices are making my head hurt. I can buy an 18 or 20 inch tire for the same money as a 275/60-15 BF Goodrich Radial T/A for the rally wheels. It eats me up when a 15 and a 18-20 tire are equal in price. With the cost of these cheap big wheels nowadays (Boss, Showwheels, etc), it makes a big wheel package look attractive. We all know a set of big wheels will go a long way towards making a plain truck look killer.
