Re: offical lowered thread of standard cab pu, lets see them!

I'm running 275r45/20 front and back thinkin about going tall on the back. What tire sizes are you running?

Re: offical lowered thread of standard cab pu, lets see them!

275/60/17 on the rear and 235/60/17 on the front

i would do a 315/35/20, but you will likely need a 10" wide wheel for that........you will need at least a 9-9.5 to go any larger than what you have and look right......just my opinion

Re: offical lowered thread of standard cab pu, lets see them!

Here it is with 275-45r20's all the way around with it lowered I cannot run a bigger tire on front but I might try a taller tire on the rear for the same look you have. The front is lowered with springs I like the look but the ride is not so good, but with my trailer on the back bumper the ride is great. I think I need to do more camping.

Re: offical lowered thread of standard cab pu, lets see them!

Mine again. Bought it lowered last Nov. It rides okay until I hit bumps and then the differenatial hits bed and tires rub. Needs to be airbagged so I can have best of both worlds. I love this truck though. Hope to have it forever.

Re: offical lowered thread of standard cab pu, lets see them!

Thanks. I've actually considered removing the factory trim and replacing the mirrors with black front instead of the chrome front.
