Man these are huge =)

Bad news was i ordered the wrong size tires. 305/30/22's are just way to much rubber on a 22x9.5.

They did not rub, but there would be no dropping the front with my 3" spindles coming in soon.

My 285/30/22's should be here Monday =/. I was hoping for the weekend.

I ended up with Dunlop Sports and Bazo B4 rims. I will take some pics when they are on.

 

How did you pay for your rims? What job do you have?

 

Bet it will look sharp

 

You've got to hurry up and post pics! I'm dying to see what they look like. I've wanted to see these rims on a Lightning for a long time. I can't wait til' Monday. It seems like I'm almost as excited as you are.

 

I got the camera as soon as i get t hem on i will post the pics =).

 

What Co makes a 305-30-22? That would be a sweet size for me. And 3in drop spindles? or did you mean 3in coil spring? Thanks.

 

No he ment 3 inch drop spindle's. I know because I have them on my truck from the same shop that is putting them on his.

i have never seen a 305-30-22 but i have seen a 305-40-22, which might be to big. in 30 series, pirelli offers a 265-35-22 and a 295-30-22 as well as dunlops 285-30-22. i have a pirelli 305-35-23 on my lightning with a 3/4 drop and have no problems.

 

the difference in how those 2 tires look is HUGE! Even if it is a small amount, it makes a huge difference.

the pirreli's were on nation wide back order so he ordered the Dunlops. BTW, do you have pictures of your truck? I would love to see what it looks like dropped with 23s!

 

I have the Bazo B4's too. I went with Pirelli 295/30/22's. Check out my gallery or I can email you pics.https://www.f150online.com/galleries....cfm?gnum=1658 (default)

 

Ah nice thanks for the pics!

 

Bagged01L, thanks for the info on the spindles, I will call to see if they will sell a set. My truck is bagged but I'd like to setup my ride with a spindle. Are you using the front swaybar? I use endlinks that pivot and shock is inside the control arms so my steering does not suffer.

For the tires size, The 295-30 even has abit more meat then my 285-30's. Even when just looking. Plus I have 22X10's. I'd much rather have 305-30's.

Thanks for all the info.....................................

 

The 295/30/22 pirelli's are out of stock pretty much everywhere =/.

I had to go with the 285/30/ 22's in a Dunlop Sport.

 

Hey Silver X, will you post pics of your truck. I would like to see a bagged truck on 22's. Thanks.
