Post pics of your wheel/tire COMBO....

Hi guys,
I am wanting to upgrade my rims and tires on my truck. I have 235/70/16 with stock General's. The ride and handling SUCK!!

I am hoping that if I upgrade to a 17 or 18" rim and maybe 275 series tires I can get a little better handling from the truck over turns and bumps.

I want something that will fill the wheel well up a bit, but I don't want 20's.

I want to find a combo that will leave my speedometer as close to stock as possible. Thanks in advance guys!!!!

Thumbs up NEED WHEELS ?

I have a set you could go either way with, the first combo are 18's in the front, 20's in the rear. Since you dont want 20's I have the same style wheel in 18's all the way around, 18 x 8 front, 18 x 9.5 rear with Yokahoma AVS S/T's 255/40/18 & 255/50/18's, the tires are brand new. I live in Dallas, so getting them to you would be no problem. The wheels are Billet Specialties " Screams", you should be able to see a pic of them in my signature.

I went from 275/60/17 to 285/55/18 just like a few others on the board with our Lightning wheels. I absolutely love the way they look handle and feel. There is some rubbing on turns but not much.
