New Bling?

After a long wait which was well worth it, my rims came in this past week. Got the chance to get them mounted. Big thanks to Derek over @ Lethal Performance ( http://www.lethalperformance.com/ ) for a killer price on the wheels! I'm 1000000% satisfied with the quality of the wheels, and the wait was WELL worth it.

Wheels are 22x10 Boyd Osiris wrapped in 285/35/22 Hankook RH06's.

Check them out....







-Mike

Thanks guys and gals.... I had been going back and forth between 20's and 22's. I wanted the 22's badly, but I was afraid they would look too big. I think they fit perfectly with the 4/6 drop. Amazingly, I thought the ride would go to crap after those low profile tires, but it really didn't. It was definitely worth the wait!

I usually don't like big wheels on Lightnings. But, man those 22's just work. Your truck looks awesome with the new wheels.

Western Chassis 4/6....

A-Arms/Coil Springs up front

Flip Kit/C-Notches in rear

Doetsch Tech shocks in all 4 corners.

I was totally unhappy with the ride of the truck with the stock wheels until I spent the 8 hours and did my own C-Notches. Truck rides like stock, even with the 22's to my suprise. I was expecting to loose quite a bit of ride quality, but, it really isn't bad at all.
