    Yah i've seen trucks with just a t bar crank and 35's. They all on stock rims though. I personally think the stuffed tire look looks great.

    Now I am looking at the treadwright 315/70/17s. Any pics of 285/70s, 305/70s, and 315/70s for a comparison?

    Now I'm torn. The 285s look good, but the 315s would fit too.... Oh well not like I have the $ right now so I have time to think about it. Nice truck BTW

    Not a huge difference, really wasnt worth the money now that i look back. But still allows me to tow, haul, and if i happen to get off the pavement; I still have plenty of room.
