Well finally got some time to get them mounted up and the truck cleaned up. Not bad for over 235K miles.

Thanks man. Nope they are the same ones that were on there the last time you saw it. Maybe since its clean they look different. Should be getting them tinted here in the next week or so hopefully.

Just a rough country leveling kit. Used the 3" rear block, but cranked the front so there is still a 1" rake to it. So it would really be level if I left the factory block in.

Can you do me a favor when you get a chance, measure the gap from ground to bottom center of the fenders? Im guessing itll be around 39 inches.

As a matter of fact I know that off the top of my head. Rear is 40 1/4" and front is 39 1/2". But I will double check that once I get to work in the AM.

Tire and rim combo does look good, nice choice!

I used to live in Baltimore up on N. Calvert St.

They look great! The offset is perfect for your truck! The other wheels would have stuck out WAY too far and looked goofy.

I had that same tire on my 2 door tahoe back when they were brand new. Gotta love how wide they are!
