New Pics with the wheels on!!!! :)

Got the proper lug nuts this afternoon and installed the wheels!! I had cranked the T-bars up about 1 3/4" about a week ago and then had to trim a little off the lower valence but everything came out looking pretty good! I like the look!!






The wheel is the ION series 148 in a 16x10 with a 4" backspace. The tires are Nitto Terra Grapplers in 285/75/16. They fit pretty dang good with a little trimming of the lower valence and the slight tweak of the T-bars. I also removed the pinstripe this afternoon since I am waiting on an order of new "brushed chrome" FX4 decals that will help make the truck look a tad bit different then any other Screw running around up here....

Looks nice. I think you should crank up the front a little more to level the truck out. But still looks nice.

Those are pretty much cranked up as high as they will go. I maxed them out and then backed them off about 1/2 turn so they weren't sitting at max stress. On level ground though, it looks level. I think it's more my driveway in that pic that makes it look raked a bit.

Thanks for the props though! Those Nitto's are awesome tires on the street. Very comfortable ride, very quiet, and pretty damn grippy for an A/T tire. I'd reccomend them!

Yea, I got the Nitto's too and they are pretty nice! Hope they last longer than the noted 35k!

I ordered the wheels through www.tomzwheels.com and got the tires from an Ebay auction via Discount Tire Direct...
