Just looks a little funny to me with all that open wheel well space IMO.... But, don't go for that 24" 'covered wagon" wheel look either!! UGH... 4x4's need to have that rubber sidewall showing!

Overall, a very nice piece of work! Wish I had the time and money to do something like that!

Thanks, a guy from church gave me that suit. I think is from th 70's. And the truck does have a 2'' lift. I use to have 33'' Buckshots on it. As soon as I get the time I'm going to put it back down to factory hight. But my next set of tires will have a little meat on them. Lookin at the Cooper Discover H/T 285/50R20.
Right now it's got Goodyear Eagle GTII 285/50R20 (31'' Tire). They're an excellent long life tire but when it comes to getting in the throttle they just spin.... 1st through 2nd and a little bit in 3rd. Anyhow, Thanks for checkin' it out.
