20" Coys are on!
couldnt take it anymore...broke down and ordered some coys...sprung for the chrome ones this time, and am really glad i did...the finish is really nice, and since this was prob the best one of these trucks i've owned, i treated myself
 i got the 8.5's up front and the 10's in the rear for tires i got Yokohoma's, 245/45's up front and 295/45's in back i had to adjust my rear a bit to get the right stance, truck is officially 5/7 now, i like rear tire being burried under rear lip like this, and i know from experience, that the front drop springs will settle some it takes lots of patience to get the right stance, and i think i finally got it, after adjusting the rear drop shackles twice  what do ya'all think?

yah, couldnt take much more of those things....sold them locally without advertising them too  i know some say the coys are "overused", but where i'm at, no one, and i mean no one is even lowering these trucks, so dont matter to me...

Re: 20" Coys are on!
Of course everyone on here says the coys are over rated, its a chevy website that is world wide. Lol
Hey what do you think about painting the black part of the grill red and a black bowtie??? Or red bowtie?? |

Re: 20" Coys are on!
I don't see myself ever buying 20's but if I do I hope I can make them look that good - you've got the stance nailed... Congrats, that turned out well.

Re: 20" Coys are on!
They look really nice man, they go really well with the truck.. I think the bigger rims go well w/ the trim and stuff on.

Re: 20" Coys are on!
Oh, well it looks good man. I know a few local racers here. I prefer watching the sprints but the limited + modifieds put on quite a show

Re: 20" Coys are on!
Sweet. Those have been my favorite wheel since they came out. I like 'em with the gray spokes too.
