Really? That seems low to me for some reason. I guess they are wearing evenly? Im looking for that magic setting that will get the best power / fuel usage / tread wear / ride quality. I was running at 70 for several days, the ride was horrible but I was amazed that I couldnt really feel a loss of power from the stock tires. When i realized they were so high i lowered to 48 and the ride is ALOT better, but now I feel the slight loss of power from the bigger tires.

Consider spray painting your driveshaft black, the rust color was one of the first things I saw.

_edit, and the bottom of the hitch ball.

Hey anyone. What does this guys truck have for rim and tire size? I'm looking into the Eagle 197's in the super chrome finish it's like a black/chrome combo and im looking at 35" toyo's

If those are 35x12.5x18's on his truck, i'm going with 18's

Thats the exact same setup I'm hoping to have in 2 to 3 months!! awesome and I'm an idiot because I don't think you can get the eagle 197's in anything bigger than an 18....I think.

Cool...glad we have the same good taste.

I think those will look great with your silver truck. Is Nebraska in the U.S.? (sorry, just a joke for us living in New Mexico...lol).

That is one sleek lookin ride! If I had any money to throw around I would definitely make my baby look like THAT! Looks like the more matured version of my own, a little taller and wants to beat my truck up on the playground.

My dad likes my truck though, so that counts for something right? I think if my truck looked like yours though I'd hear it from a lot of people. I already get enough flack for my truck looking as tough as it does now, because I'm girl and I guess girls can't drive badass trucks!
