Lifted my Lightning!
Lifted my Lightning!
..only temporarily though. I'm paranoid someone is going to see my truck and I'll be the butt end of an F150online flame job. Here's the scoop -Bone stock 01' Lightning 19K miles. I wanted to get my expensive "non-voiding" mod's out of the way first.
So, I picked up some 22" ADR Maximus rims w/Toyo Proxes ST 305/40/22 tires -I went from a 28" to a 31.5" wheel/tire combo, raising it 1-3/4". It looks freakin ridiculous, like a monster truck. Needless to say, a lowering kit and 410's get ordered today.
Visible wheelwell clearence is about 3-1/2" in Front and about 4-1/2" in the rear. With the wider tire I'm thinking that a 2/3 drop is about my max -but I wanted some other opinions. Anybody have this type of combo (yes, I've used the search function).
Also, I big Thanks to Doug/F150online for the "wheel ratio" calculator (so I know I'm 11.1% off), this site has helped me soooo much. I'll send a pic to someone if they can post it (so you can all laugh...)
