Thanks for all the comments on my truck... I felt weird lurking here and not commenting...

One trick i think i need to mention here, if you are going to go with the 8 inch lift and 35's, get smaller wheels (18"s). You can pull it off if you have more rubber under wheel well. My other toy- F250 Powerstroke with 6" and 35's has 20's on it. The 6" lift on 250's can also clear 37's (just like an 8 inch lift on an f150 can). The wheels and tires look weird because there is less rubber on the wheel (not my choice, came from the dealer that way). I think that this will be consistent across the board. If you are going with smaller tires, don't get a huge wheel.

I played ACHA DIII hockey for Xavier in Ohio. Glad to see some other hosers.

I agree with you on the smaller rim and I also think getting a wider tire (13.5) would make it look great.

ya if the 35" tire ur looking at is 13.50 or wider i think it wont look bad..i use to run 33s on a 6 inch lift and it honestly was not that bad looking. Besides the shocks on the Rize will look good in the extra space.

yea im pretty sure they were in that division. I just looked them up but can't see them in there now. Teams jump divisions every year. We were central I believe. Wright State and Northwood were the powerhouses in there. Both won nationals over the past 3 years. I think kennesaw state won last year. Our region was tough. There were alot of cruddy teams in there, but some of the best in the league were in there too.

Who was your friend?

in my opinion, it looks as though having a screw makes a difference. i like this look. the tires don't look small at all! that's a sweet ride

hash - what tire/rims you have? what size?

Im sure it will still look good so dont worry about it. Plus it looks even better when you have like bilsteins or foxs with some space in the wheel well so you can atleast show those sweet looking shocks
i agree with mhockey, what wheels you going to run?
