Re: 57 Pick-up performance Question

I understand that everyone has a different set of priorities but I give almost zero thought to wheel options. If they roll true and clear my brakes... that's about it.
Also - the 55-59 frame is also 34" wide, and so works just as well as the F100 for a CV swap. Power rack & pinion, 12.5" discs & dual pot calipers with the same GAWR as the 1/2 ton truck had to begin with.
I'm sure a lot of guys are sick of seeing my recommend it but if you want to use your truck like a truck and run IFS, there is no better or cheaper option.
