Re: anyone running 305/50/20 on the rear
Yeah, I'd have to agree .. I like the 45's better. Here's how I'm going to set mine up. 255/45 and 295/45. 4.5/6.5 Drop. Some like the 40's and I do too but I just want a little extra for the ride and wheel protection.

But .. to each his or her own! Good looking truck regardless! The 50's look good too, just a little much for my taste.

Re: anyone running 305/50/20 on the rear
305/50/20 is a lot of tire, but it looks good! Nice looking truck. The 315/35/20 is a good choice also, and is what I will be running on mine.

Ackattack: I am fan of your truck and dig the color.

I am a huge fan of the color too, and hate to admit it but am considering ripping it off.
