really? mines a bit older than yours i think, but dang thats impressive. Ive heard nothing but good things about the buckshots though, so thats good. and ive just seen on my other buddies trucks that have that big gap, i guess they didnt bother with the bumper brackets. lol

 

The PA lifts come with the brackets

just saw your truck was red, these would look great on your truck but idk if the make them in a 5x135 pattern and they are $760 through rimzone

 

i like those rims a lot, mines the deeper red that ford had so idk if those would match perfectly but ill look at them. and with that 3 inch body lift how big could i go in regard to tires?

 

Ya thats why I waited a bit. Although you think its all you want, theres always more when you see some of the trucks on this website haha. I have heard some great things about the Kuhmos too so its not a bad option and they are cheaper so thats always a plus

I think with only a 3 inch body lift you would have some rubbing so you would have to trim the valence a bit. Nothing too big I don't think. Like discussed before, the spacer would give you even more clearance. Just remember to check the backspacing before you get aftermarket rims since they will most likely be wider than stock

 

Yeah I gotcha, but I love how the khumos look too. Its just deciding between bullet holes or something more expensive and flashy for rims. and that's deff not all I want, hids, billet grille, new head unit for radio, some performance stuff too sooo much stuff sooo little money!

 

just lower it! its cheaper and looks better! :P

 

welcome to the site!

i suggest getting a body lift and doing the spindle lift and try to find you some used tires to fit on your stock rims till you can save up enough to buy what you really want.

ive had 3 sets of tires on my truck, and i got them all used! craiglist and your local paper is a great help! also, check out the classifieds in the forum!

 

I appreciate it, yeah ill deff be keepin an eye out for tires that are used. But the body lift seems to be the way to go.

 

yeah man they are great! i put mine on in a weekend. just take your time. you will love the results!

 

Haha I know what you mean about needing more money. The rims I have were only $118 a piece after discounts with the package. All about finding the right deal. Billet grills aren't that expensive so everything is within reach, I even saw a billet grill with a logo cutout for like $28 on ebay awhile back. Might even be more available. I've learned from this forum with HIDs, quality is worth the extra expense. Keep that in mind

 

Which rims did you get? And yeah billet grilles and smaller stuff like that I can take. Are of before or after lift and tires. But I've heard that too about hids that they are worth the extra money to buy the kit.

 

Level 8 Strike 5 rims. Matte black with machined lip. 16x8

 

How you like em? And what tires did you get with em?

 

I love em. I havent seen anyone with them either so thats a plus in my book. I got BF Goodrich All Terrain T/A KOs. Jury is out on wear but I love them and so far have been the best tire I have had

 

Yeah I gotcha, I probably want an mt. But the all terrains are nice too, and yeah originality is important to me too.
