I agree, but I think you will be better off with a wheel with more backspacing or slightly narrower, or both.

i think the rims and tires would be fine. it would give you a "meatier" look and make the truck look mean. 4.88s will work wonderfully.

Doing my own body lift now and it is a job.....will finally finish it on monday (it is locked in the shop until then) will have a total of about 15-16 hours in it. My only real advise is on your 2d, 2p, and 4d if you can lift the cab off the frame and make sure you have a really good 1/2" drill bit. A press also comes in handy when pressing out the 2d, 2p, and 4d bushings that are press fitted in. E-mail me if you have any questions and I will be more than happy to help you out. Most of all remember to have fun.....it will more than likely throw a few curves at you.
