Finally! New wheels, tires, and level.

Only a couple quick pics. Finally got new wheels, tires, and 2" AS level kit on today. Doesnt look as good in the pics as it does in person. Pretty pumped about it.

P.S. It doesnt look level because its on uneven ground but also still has 4 factory wheels and tires in the bed. Its pretty damn close to being perfectly level.

Thoughts? I'll take more, better pics another day.

18x9 moto metal 951s(+18 backspace )

They stick out a bit more then i thought they would. If i can afford em, will get some fender flares soon.

Not really going for offroad per se. It is only a 2wd after all. Just wanted a tougher, more aggressive looking stance i guess. Without going to far aswell. I'm not the only one that will be using this truck.

brandomartsx, thats a good question. I've not been able to find flares for flaresides. Theres some up on ebay that claim to fit an 08' flareside but havent asked the seller to make sure.

Thats what i was thinking at first, but wandell said that it would be a tight fit and may have rubbing problems with a 305. Didnt want to worry about that possibility so went with the 285. Keeping in mind I have a 4x2. 4x4 would allow for bigger tires.

I would even go as far as getting just the handle buckets PTM and keep the strap black.
