Here is mine with 5 inch RCX....with 295/75/16 terra grapes and 16x10 wheels....not exactly what you said but pretty close....i drove around like that forever and it looked ok sometimes but i always felt like there was just too much space....if you have a wide wheel and a aggressive tire it prolly will look ok... |

No Prob...Do you have wheels/what size?....and do you have a mud/aggressive tire?
|
i have 285's as winter wheels on my truck and i have a 6.5" on mine on the same tock rims as you and dosent look bad at all IMO my 35's look alot better but the 285's fill out the wells decent.
|
I think they would look too small IMO. I had 285s at stock height.

i think 285's will look small with a 6" lift. i ran them when i had a 3" BL and they looked ok.
I have the perfect solution, get the lift and buy my wheels and tires! :D |
put on the lift now and save up for gears and 35's while you wear out your new 285's
|
id have to agree it look too small. those guys out in cali putting an 8 inch lift on their rigs and running a 33x15.50 tire can look rediculous, so a 6 with a tire thats just barely getting to 32 inches overall i think would look like a donut and not a full size tire.

Need some help deciding
I am the proud owner of a 2013 FX4 5.0l Crew Cab shorty and want to dress it up a little. Wondering what siz tire I can get under it with a 2 inch leveling kit.
Also curious if I lift it 6 inches what tire can I get under it using stock 20x8.5 wheels and what would be the best lift (suspension) for doing this? Would appreciate all opinions. |
Baderenzy....try searching it first and if not then make a thread in the 2013 section...we would like to help ya but this is the 97-03 section.... some guys may know here but youll get better results in that section

I had 285's on my truck for a while when I was around 8". Me being 2wd it was close to the height you would be at 6". With a wider set of aftermarket wheels it honestly doesn't look too bad. There is a pic of it on pizzaman's suspension sticky.
