What a difference tire and wheel combo will make on your truck looks alot better.

Am I going crazy, or is the truck riding/turning better? I would have thought going
from a 225 to a 255 would make it harder to turn, not easier. Sweet. Then again,
the allignment might have something to do with it.

Those rims made an awesome truck even more awesome!

Definitely a nice iprovement. My shortstep is primered and rust, but the rally's are nice and brand new tires, to me make an ugly truck look not half bad.

I like it better with the old wheels/tires......

Not!!!........Looks great...Paul
