New 22" Boss 313's....

Picked up some 22x9.5 Boss 313 wheels with Yokohoma Parada Spec-X tires 305/40/22 from member Sleestak today (thanks, man). They are much different than the 265/70/17 tires on stock rims! Gotta say i love the look. Once I finish the truck off it will look even better. Fixing some wreck and hail damage, and putting a Roush rear bumper cover on and losing the steps. Depending how ambitious I am I may be painting the handles, mirrors, and shaving some stuff. Oh, and painting the newly visible calipers and hub centers, and I was talking with my bud who's painting my stuff about the fogs, he gave me an idea of fabricating some fiberglass foglight housings for a truly unique look. We shall see.

On to the pics....... Please forgive the filthy truck.

Now you can see some of the damage a bit better, my wife smacked a Saturn and banged up the bumper, bumper cover, and fender. I have replaced the bumper already. The hood has been demolished by hail, I've got a Reflexxion non cobra style cowl hood to put on.

Nice. What kind of drop do you have? That stance is exactly what I would like, not sure if it will work on mine though cause my tires/rims stick out a little more past the wheel well.

Looks really good. I think they look even better on your truck. After seeing your exhaust Saturday it makes me want to get a Roush now.

That is looking good, Will. I agree, you need to lose the steps. One other thing about the wider tires, you're going to get a lot of dirt, water, and mud thrown on the sides of the truck. You will need to wash more often!

I like the wheels on your truck.

Just a 2/4 drop. 2" GF springs and 3" Eibach rear leafs with 2" GF Shackles I already had. If you're looking for an inexpensive but high quality drop, look at Eibach. Good stuff.
