Anybody have a pic of a 67-72 on 24's? I have not seen one yet, just curious. Also wanted to know if anyone has any alot of pics of a z'd frame on their truck or a link to a build thread, Thanks Trey

With a Porterbuilt dropmember, you can lay out with a 29" tire without z-ing the frame.

Not sure if you can keep a 24" wheel under 29" overall, that would be a tiny tire.

I think the smallest tire is like 30.5 but not positive, I heard they are making a 25 series tire, bet that is fun to mount on a rim and rides good. Anyway I think I do remember the baby blue stepside now that you brought it up. Thanks

Seen that one, very nice truck.

hmmm. that looks kinda dangerous. looks like one of the dub edition model cars that have a tire 1/64" thick. That front side wall cant be more than an inch thick...

I'm not a huge fan of anything over 20" wheel. personally, I wouldn't run anything larger than an 18" because I like a lot more tire.

For now I am sticking to my 15" wheels and will get a 65 series tire very soon.

Looked in the suspension section, and found most of the answers I am looking for, Thanks
