I don't have a pic of 24s at stock ride height but I have seen them in person. Looks strange to me. On the other hand, 24s tucked under a bagged truck looks hot!

Re: 24's on a 72
Hey man I'm sorry. I realize this isn't a "what do you think" thread. I know you were just asking for pics. I think it was my "truck turrets syndrome" kicking in!

Re: 24's on a 72
Had this picture saved from Texas Showdown 2011. This truck had 22's on the front and 24's on the back, i think he did a good job on the stance for not having bags.

Re: 24's on a 72
As long as they're tucked a little bit and it's a classic style 5 spoke style wheel it would look good. The orange truck looks great in my opinion and the blue one would look even better dropped just a little.

Re: 24's on a 72
Running 24's on a moderately lowered truck will not look proportional at all. If you like the big wheel look, 22's would be a better choice. As mentioned 24's or 22's tucked on a bagged truck is a growing trend right now. There were several running those massive 405's at the Lonestar Throwdown last weekend.
The red truck is static dropped on 22's and they absolutely nailed the stance. The yellow truck is bagged so you can see the difference that makes.

Re: 24's on a 72
you should put a lift on it, like 3 or 4 in, then put those 24s on it, candy paint, man you'd be rollin!..... gasoline pass the bleach when your done..haha.......on dropped/lowered trucks they look good, stock height it doesnt, lowering a truck 2/4 or 3/5 it would look slick.
