Re: need help with tire size

First, welcome to the board from SE TN !

Just a couple questions. Do you already have your wheels? If so, do you know the specs / backspacing on them? Is the original rear end housing still in the truck?

Do you have plans to go lower at some point or more than likely stick with 3/5 ? Is this a fleetside truck or stepside?
