I'd go with something a little smaller like a 285/50-20

do you guys think the 305/50/20 will rub on turns, the reason im asking is because it comes as a set with rims and tires, and will cost more if i have to get different tires, either way im gettin them just tryin to pay a little less

I would think 305's would rub, as low as you are, not to metion look a little funny with that big a tire on a lowered truck. I personally think you would need a 275/45.

yeah i got toyo proxes s/t... 275/45R20 if i remember right.

man, i sell wheels and tires for a living. i've been looking a LOOOONNNG time for some wheels that i thought would look good on the truck. rockstars i think would look really good. what i was WANTING was some pro comp knight chromes.... those things are just SICK in person

btw, this are some new chrome ones they came out with.... i like the offset ALOT



have you ever been to www.wheelpros.com? they actually have the boss in the wheel fitting room where you can see what it looks like.

sounds like you got the same lowering kit that i did from beltech..... you go with the nitro shocks? my ride is so dang responsive right now it's crazy... suspensions stiff but that's thanks to the traction bars....

haven't put it on a dyno yet.... i'm kinda trying to wait till i get this other motor finished so that i can drop it in there

shoot, one last thing. hope you already bought wheels for that truck. because as of 2 weeks ago, wheel pros only had 3 TOTAL sets of WHEELS (all sizes) to fit our truck. procomp doesn't have any decent ones....

everyone is going to stop making if they already haven't our bolt pattern: 5x135 ....

they say there's not a demand for them anymore.....
