yup. There was a thread a while back talking about doing that. Looks great.
Where'd you get those super singles?

Tires are Mickey thompson 31x18 on 20x15 custom Boze rims I had made up.
Traction is controllable now.No more spinnig tires in second gear.You can still spin if you mash,but if you roll in to the throttle controllably,hold on for G forces.

still, if the springs are in the stock place then the backspace on his wheels would have to be like 3" on an 18"ish wide wheel

Truck has a 4" drop on rear with stock springs.I had Boze make rims with 7" backset which gives me about 8" of Deep dish looks badass.

Looks awesome, nice combo of factory stuff to make your own creation. You pulled it off well.
