The only thing that puzzles me, is that I have seen some pictures of people running 22.5 with what looks to be no lift, or no more than a 2" leveling kit. You see a couple white ones and the K&L Enterprises with the stacks with this setup. Now I have NO IDEA if Chromewheel.com is any good or reputable, but it seems that they were able to do this without lifting. I assume all the trimming needed would be cutting out the plastic fenderwell on the inside?

In stock form, the dodge fits fine with a couple inches to spare. Those will probably be taken up with the extra tire. Would an air suspension like Kelderman's allow me to drop the vehicle back to stock height (basically too low to drive in anything other than a straight line) and then raise back up for regular driving?

What a gorgeous truck. Now I really need to go clean and detail mine.
While I've never been a fan of Lambos (give me a Viper or a Z06), I must admit, that is one HOT car.

And thanks for the compliment on the Lambo; I've always been a sucker for a V12!
I am actually in the process of HEAVILY modifying the crap out of the vehicle such that, when I am done, it will have lost about 700LBS. of weight, be bored out from 6.2 to 6.5 Liters, and have an extra 170 RWHP yet still retain all of the luxury inside!

Let me tell you it was one fun build... everywhere you drive people almost get in accidents because they are stuck on it... its a different drivin feeling too.. its still on the stock suspension all we did was build up to everything.. It has over 20" of lift with 40" tires and 20" rims.. its even better in person
