Rake question
this is a weird question... when you guys think of rake, is it meaning that the back is higher because of suspension, or because of tire size..reason i ask is because today i used my front wheels to move my trailer out of the garage, i have 225/75/15's and jsut for fun i threw on the trailer tires 205/75-15s on my truck..and the rake was bad a$$ looking..so i was just wondering if i wanted to rake out my truck if i should raise the back by removing lowering blocks, or get bigger tires for the rear...whats a better look??

Re: Rake question
Either or both is appropriate. My interpretation of rake is the finished result of whatever it took to create the desired stance. Tire stagger is usually part of that equation in hot rods and performance cars.
