Yeah they are 38x14.50x16.

I agree with the gears - my silver truck had 3.73's and even with the 35's and an edge programmer the truck was still downshifting all the time to climb the slightest hill. I drove around in town with o/d off all the time, that seemed to help a ton. 4.56's would be ideal for 35" tires for sure. But like you said, you can get by.

Finally started a new thread for my truck's build-up in the Suspension area:
CLICK HERE

Nothing new I haven't posted in here yet - but I'll keep that one updated to keep this local thread a bit less-cluttered....unless you guys don't mind.

I'm definately going with a flat black rim and obviously I need an 18 inch too, but I'm really looking at the Pro Comp 7005's I honestly think their the best looking black rim I've seen so far. If anybody has any suggestions throw them out there, I found all 4 PC 7005's for $649 to my front door and thats brand new, but I mean if I could save some money and find a black wheel I like just as much I would do it.

Another thing is, I'm gonna sell my 20" rims with tires once I get my lift and stuff on. I kinda cant sell them yet because my truck won't roll around on hopes and dreams lol

I'm asking $1,100 for the rims and tires if anybody's interested, tires are pretty good on them, hankook venturas???? something like that, hankooks for sure though, just not sure the model name

WOW I TYPED TOO MUCH.

Well after yesterdays site debacle here is the joke of the day:


Beer Testing

"Yesterday, scientists revealed that beer contains small traces of female hormones. To prove their theory, the scientists fed 100 men 12 pints of beer and observed that 100% of them gained weight, talked excessively without making sense, became emotional, couldn't drive, and refused to apologize when wrong. No further testing is planned."
