guys are running 35's without a lift. When it comes to wheels you can get what you want as long as the tires are 35's or under.

35s and no lift? Crap. I have 285s on stock 16s, tighten the bars and they still rub a lil bit on the inside. Offset difference?

From what I've heard is that guys are doing it with only cranking the T bars. I know where your coming from because I thought the same thing. I have a 6inch lift and I still needed to trim my bumper a bit. This is just what I've heard. They might have a different offset.

Can you send me some more pics of your truck? I am running 285/60's now but want to upgrade to 285/6518's. I would like to see what it is going to look like. Thanks.
