Default My truck lost 63 lbs today



Sorry about the pic quality. I put my ET streets on with stock 15 inch wheels looks a little crazy but WOW. I weighed the 20's 83.5 lbs 53.5 lbs with the DR's on the stock wheels. Took the rather odd looking truck out and holy S! The thing hooks on the street better than it did at the track! The weight transfer is much better as well. Took it out on the interstate and they rode rather well. I have not aired them down yet. I did all of this at 35 lbs.

If you are thinking about buying a set of ET streets DO IT!

I actually like the look of your truck with the stock 15's. Sometimes less is better. Just keep your truck clean and simple.

I am going to run stockers all the way around for a while. I have to get some tires for the front. I already have the rims.

Personally I love the look of 88-98 trucks with 15" Welds (Draglites specifically) and a mild drop.
