I'm going to run the 295/50's on the rear of my truck and couldn't decide which size to run up front to keep sidewall heights close to the rears. The 245/60's look like what I need go with. Thanks again!
ymere you might want to find some 10" rear wheels before putting those 295/50's on. They might look a little puffy on those 8's

I like both sets of wheels but lean to the steelies, 69 Camaro/chevelle dog dish caps would look awesome on those wheels.

I was thinking about putting the dog dishes back on but don't think they would go well with the white letters showing. Here's an older pic with the dogs on them black walls out.

Re: OJ has some new shoes for the summer

I think I know why you have a wheel choice problem, most guys put wheels on to make thier truck look good but your truck is making all those wheels look good. Sorry your truck is just too nice, LOL

Oh yeah... haha, definitely be getting some 10's for the rear. I just wanted to see a few more pics of that exact tire/wheel combo before I ordered everything. Thanks again for the pics, that's exactly what i needed to see!
