Re:Tire question

I put 315's on the stock rims which worked perfect. But like most men, stock wheels don't cut it. I purchased some Eagle Alloy #102's which are 9" wide with 5" back space. The wheels look sweet!!!!! At stock height, minimal rubbing on flat ground, a little worse but not catastrophic on uneven grounds. I put a sweet adjustable coil spacer on set to 2 1/2" and I now only have the slightest rubbing on very uneven terrain. One inch all the way around on level ground. Coil spacers are at http://www.tsliftkitstore.com/produc...&ID=19651. I now need to put on some fender flares because with less backspace, the wheels stick out about 1 1/2" farther. Just right!!! By the way, this is my first post and I have a 03 3500 SRW CTD with every know option plus some.

It never ends.
Bigger tires.
More fuel to spin the tires.
More air to go with the fuel.
Ooops, too much air, need more fuel again.
on and on
;D
