Nice tires... I personally do not care for the rims... different strokes... To delicate, snowflake ish, for me. I like a more rugged look.

Offset? If the centerline of the rim is moved out you add more stress to your ball joints (which are already over stressed).

Ya, different strokes... I like the way the black matches the trim on the truck.

The wheels have a 4.5" offset, so that's .75" past stock wheels. I'm hoping they'll be ok.

Wow - a regular cab... now there's something you don't see every day!

Nice tires - looks like more than 3/4" of offset though... probably the camera angle.

thanks guys. I'm a little bit dissapointed with the way the tires feel. I have them aired up to 50 psi and they really feel soft in the corners. I stopped today to check and see if I had a tire going down on my, on the way home from my parents house. Maybe I'll try 60 psi in the fronts to stiffen it up.

I like my standard cab. I couldn't really afford a 4 door, plus I don't need one right now. I wish someone would donate a smarty to me... then I'd be all set.

I have always liked the Std Cab... I use the larger bed for work. (short bed does not work for me) Mega is way to long!

Nice truck.
