Nice! are those Boyd's? Did you back space on the rears? do you think could you have gone to 35's on the rear?

Yes they are boyds. I thinkn the back space is 5 1/2 on the back. I dont think 35's would fit.

Becker67 - I REALLY like your truck. You've got the stance and 'look' nailed! Are those 10" wide wheels in the back? I think I've asked you befoe, but what drop do you have?

Hey, I like your stance and wheel combo.
What part of the backspace makes you think that 35s wouldn't fit? On the outer fender or on the inside fender well?

I am thinking 295/35 on back of mine but I think the 338s are only 5" BS and that would mean closer to the inside fender well compared to your 5.5" set up.
Not sure if I got that right. Someone else could answer.

They wouldnt find on my truck cause i have a rearend out of a late 70's chevy truck. The newer rearend is wider. My tires are close to rubbing on the outer fender well. I'm sure they would work on your truck.
