Al, I agree 100% .. the bags and Billets took your truck WAY up into another level. It was awesome before, .. but now, it's difficult to describe with words brother. If mine turns out half as nice, I'm a happy man.

If my GMC was bagged I would do 40 series tires on these wheels but without a notch and 6.5" rear drop I'm going to make some modifications to my bed wood and felt the inner fenders a bit to allow me about 5.85"BS on the rear and 45s. I like a bit more sidewall than 40's .. just personal taste.

295/45/20 - 255/25.4*.45 = 5.22" sidewall
295/40/20 - 255/25.4*.40 = 4.64" sidewall

I kinda wish there was something in between, but honestly I just prefer the look of the 45's. Even if I have to tweak the bed wood a little on the inside edge. My wheels are 6" BS (late rear end housing) so I may need a thin spacer to make them work but I'd rather fix 6" BS than a 5"BS.

I think I can do it and stay as low as possible with 45s. your thoughts?

Al, do you have any pictures of your truck with Coys, 295/45 and 5.5" BS -- Specifically the inside of the tire to the bedside?
