Here's a few pics of my 1008 sitting on 13.5x37 claws.

So how bad did those slow it down?

how much lift? my buddy has 8in on his dodge 1500 to fit the 37's

6". The taller tires take a little gear out of it. Works good on the hyway. Can't really tell any difference offroad.

still trying to find those wheels

Good choice on the wheels.

Thanks. The wheels are pretty heavy with the insert's and all but it's worth it. You can run as low of pressure as you want. Makes the truck ride good offroad too.

[blzrgb]

From a guy on ebay. I think he goes by king66 but not sure. I you want i can go back and find out for sure.

that looks awesome, i am jealous of your wheel selection! i saw the ebay ad for them, and i really want a set even more now that i have seen them on your truck

are those rims 16.5?

 

[blzrgb]

They're 16". The back spacing is about right too. The scrub radius is still at or about factory.


Also, if anyone decides to buy a set, the taper on the wheels where the lug nuts seat is hard to match. I found the right taper on a set of lugs at my local Carquest. It took a lot of searching but i have the part number for the lugs if needed.
