That exhaust tip kills the whole look of the truck. Way too big, even for a diesel.

I would have loved to either keep my 22x14's or buy the Hostages in a 22x14, but I didn't like the stretched tire. The down side to running a x14 wheel is you have to run a small tire so they won't rub which will leave you with a large fender gap. If you cranked the coilovers to where you had 8" of lift up front would the 35's fit?
Why? Running a tire and wheel that are the same width looks rediculous. Tire companies obviously realize this.

Ok so x15 so it bubbles out a little. You can get the picture.


I'm not going to agree with you and say they look ridiculous. It's basically just something different. It's kind of like some like to run a 16" wheel with a 37" tire and some (like me) prefer a 22" wheel and 37" tire. I had 22x14 wheels with a 37x13.5 tire and decided it wasn't my taste, but that doesn't mean it's ridiculous looking. I decided to go with a 22x11 that way the tire would fit normal.

Here are 22x11's

Diameter of the wheel in relation to the tire has absolutely nothing to do with what I was trying to say.

That's why I posted an 11" wide wheel compared to a 14" wide wheel. I used the diameter comparison as example of personal preference.

are you sure they said it couldn't be done? or did they say shouldn't? hate the look. reminds me of the cen-cal look (google it). if you had asked me i would have definitely told you you could fit a tire 1 inch bigger than stock on a truck with a 7+ inch lift. i think the wheels would stick all the way out of the fenders before you could make a wheel to make that tire scrub.

=gnardawg83;4591785]Thanks guys, I would do a 35" but I would rip my front fenders off
I had 35s on my 20x12 wheels and I would have to back up and pull up back up and pull up to just get out of parking lots! I just wish a tire company would make like a 33x14.50r20 or if there were more choices for a 33x13.50r20 besides mickey thompson, pro comp, **** cepek and iroks
Toyo makes a 13.50 tire
