Great looking rims? What brand and where did you get them?

Is this truck a V10?

Very nice !!
What size did you move up to?
Did you have to get the speedo re-calibrated?

the tires are 315-70-17 bfgs. i didn't recalibrate the speedo because the tires are not too much taller than the stock ones, like 3% taller. i haven't noticed any power loss or a big hit in gas mileage yet.the truck has the 4.10limited slip rearend with the v-10. the wheels are walker evans racing street lock wheels, they are 17x8 1\2 with 5 inches of backspacing.i got them from his shop in riverside,ca which is where i live.you can get them through his website.

Like those rims, love the beed lock. I have the same size tires and I had one of my partners check me on radar. At 65Mph I'm off by 5 miles per hour and actually at 70.

Good looking truck,can i ask what you payed.I have been also looking at the
V10 after reading comments about the diesels the gas engine probably would suit me better.I may be dreaming but it's fun looking.V10's used are hard to come by.

If your stock tires were 265/70-17 then you are out by over 8%. When your speedo reads 60 you are actually going a little over 65. Diameter went form 31.6" to 34.4".
