Stance/Wheel-Tire Thread

Has there been a thread started that shows all the different stance and wheel and tire combos available.

Some of you guys have done AMAZING things to your trucks in this area.

It would be neat to see a broadside pic of everyone's truck from a standardized distance and then a list of mods or parts used with tire sizing and backspacing.

For instance a shot in a parking lot from 20 paces away.

Hmmmm....I'd think the front stance would be good also. Same distance, 20 paces maybe.

That would be kind of neat for a guy to be able to look at another members truck and say " That's it!" and then be able to look at his specs and start ordering parts.

Re: Stance/Wheel-Tire Thread

That leaves me out as my truck doesn't have a stance at this time but I know where you are coming from. Way too many trucks have the wrong stance or a totally wrong wheel, tire combo for the style of the truck.

Personally I like a slight rake on two wheel drive trucks and prefer the older "more traditional" wheel and tires to to the new "gotta have the latest" wheels and tires.

Re: Stance/Wheel-Tire Thread

There is always going to be the old school, new school thing. Personally I like the old school look. 15 inch wheels with a conservative drop.

But when I see some of the time and money that some of these guys put into this bagged and c notched/drop member look I've got to admire it.

I'm struggling with picking a set of wheels for my build. It would be nice to see a bunch of them and say "AHAH!".

The stance on my favorite truck is "Ready to jump!"
