New Toyo's for the Esky wheels
#21
I would definately be a lot easier for Silver-Mod-O to pick the wheels up but please keep me in the loop. Odds are I will have to pass as I'm buying a ton of crap for my truck (Pacesetters, HP Tuners, about to buy springs and pushrods....) but let me know when you decide something.
That is a nice color, easier to keep clean and light scratches/swirls are less noticable.

Thanks man. I know what you mean about spinning the tires under 20mph, gotta be careful in the rain too because I don't get ***** worth of traction. If I could lower the back a little bit more it wouldn't look as bad but I never could find anything to level it out without the back being lower than the front.

I think they are easier to keep clean. Buying used, I had to take what I could get....and felt lucky to find one this color

I'm pretty sure he has one less leaf in the pack.

I'm not sure, I haven't really dug into it. I'm gonna check his as soon as I can, and get a count on the leaves. If he put the shackles on his truck it would sit the way I'd like mine to, but I'm not sure why. I haven't heard anyone around here mention it before....I'll try to search it.

Go ahead and remove those springs if you want ****.... but be ready for some wheel hop with those lighter shoes + 6.0L + TT3000.... I'm about ready to go crazy with my wheel hop issues because of this very thing.... if you dont have plans to do cal-tracs, I'd leave 'em and look for other ways to get a little more drop IMO...

Do the 4.8 trucks without the tow package come with a different spring pack??? His truck is definately as low as mine, and I've got a 2" shackle on mine, and his is stock. What's the story??? I don't have any wheel hop issues now and I don't want any. Thanks for the warning.
