That looks great. Those black wheels are perfect and with that negative offset, it’s a good thing you installed those sweet bolt-on style pocket flares.

Okay, maybe I’m a bit biased. ☺ Still, it does look good.

Looks great, I have the bushwacker pocket flares. I have a few questions, one did you/they have to do any trimming on any part of the truck, two what brand and dimensions are the rims so I can search accordingly. Any spacers? Any words of caution from the shop about safety or handling due to offset? Can you snap a front or rear view down a side so we can see the stance? That's the stance I think I'm after. I looked at a 275 tire but it was close to 12 pounds heavier per wheel than own, concerned about any strain on components and mileage drop, need to research.

Hello I went 265 70 I had to trim alot of the front and rear crash bars ,if I had gone bigger I think there would be trimming in other areas , flares wells etc ... this stance I think is appropriate for this truck , gained 8 inches I n width , it tracks real nice and feels solid , I think 3.5 inch lift would accommodate your fit if your going wider and taller. Hers a few pics I’m flush almost maybe , a1/4 outside , goodluck buddy!
