Any rubbing with that big of a tire?
whats the backspacing & offset of your wheels?

Looks good on the 22s i would have guessed that you were lower then 2/4 just because the wheels look close to tucking

Patman- I really like the front look of your silver truck, looks killer. That STX front valance looks good.. Where did you purchase it? Have any more pictures of that silver truck? I'm not sure about the backspacing, but I believe the offset is 20mm. And yes it does rub on really hard turns...I've just gotten used to driving it, it's not that big of deal really..

I bought it on the forum, a guy i was emailing about some questions had one lying around in his backyard. It was maroon when i got it, but in good shape. So i had it painted of course.
