Default Back to Stock

Well I wanted to give my truck a sleeper look, so I decided to add my Stock 17's with some new tires. This is just temporarily the Billet Specialties will go back on after I give them a good cleaning and poloshing.

They seem to fit the truck nice but i know a small drop with these tires would make it look better. It does feel alot peppier it will chirp second even under light throttle and at WOT it will throw its tail sideways lol....

Those B.S. of yours are some of the nicest rims on this site IMO!!
Do u like those Coopers? Cause that's what I wanted but in a 16", story I heard was they were being delayed by Cooper. And delayed.

Any idea on what your rims weigh? What bout rim & tire combo? On the 17"s as well as the 20"s. Jus thinkin bout options.

Thanks.
I love these Cooper tires I have the same exact tire for my 22's (305/40/22) I have no idea what they weigh. I also was having a hard time finding them everywhere I went they told me they were either discontinued or in back order luckily i found them on line from some store in California payed $502.67 shipped to my door in 1 week.
