Got the truck cleaned up...

Thought now that 99% of the snow is gone I should get a couple of good shots of the truck...

The tire is actually a 305/45/22 Nitto special construction tire and 60% of the sidewall is hidden on the front side of the rim.
New design thats come on the Market from Lexani&Nitto, 27"front/22"back.
Ride comfort of a 305/45/22 and looks of a 27.
I don't ride on them in the winter months which is the only time I ever use my 4x4.

They are like ***** extensions for rims.

I don't think it looks bad at all, its decent, i just don't like to draw attention to myself like that.

Ps: Remove 4x4 sticker on bed.

yeah man i love the look of your truck, but i think you need about a tad bit more meat on the tires. I love the big wheel + big stance look, not lowered, but maybe just slightly bigger tires. I guy in my area converted his to an LT and put some 22s or 24s im not sure, but he runs em in the summer and they look great. Reminds me a little of your truck.

I agree the rims look sweet, but you wouldn't make it out of my driveway without bending or scratching them here in MO. Wouldn't a pothole just destroy those? Not bashing you, just wondering how you drive around with those?

You'll regret those narrow tires the first time you get near to a curb. Tires should be some protection against Rim Road Rash.

Nice truck but, I do agree with the 'sidewall meat' thoughts... I dig the color...

Does your truck ride really rough? Mine isn't the greatest ride in the world.
