Any thoughts? Positive or Negative

 

I LIKE IT! Would look better w/ bigger tires, IMO. Why'd you go w/ 285's?

 

Looks great, can I have your old steps!! I really like the OEM alloys with better sneakers on them, nice job!

 

Looks good!

WOW!!!!! You weren't lying about it looking a lot better. That's a sick looking truck now. I can't wait to see it in person.

 

I like it except the HUGE bumper on front overshadows the rest of the truck.

 

Who's step tubes are those in the first picture?? I am looking for some full length ones (don't like the cab only kind).

Truck looks good...

 

Black always looks good.

 

It looks AWESOME!!

 

Awsome, I think the ranchand and black steps make that truck. My truck is just like yours but drw. So far its got black westin platinum steps, black toolox and its been leveled. Tires go in friday and I will have pics up. Now all I need is that ranch hand. Oh by the way I have 20% tint on my side windows and 35% over my winshield. If you are goin for all blacked out it will help the looks of the truck even more. I will post pics Sat, and you can see what I meen. That is one sharp truck.

 

Looks Great....... How did you remove the Ram 3500?????? Is it just a sticker??

 

Looks good...much tougher.

 

Nice headlights And the rest looks great too!

 

you should get a black sport grill now...that chrome one looks out of place with all other chrome stripped.....I hope mine comes out looking that good

 

Well I had been doing alot of thinking on the tires. I really liked the size of the Power Wagon tires....which is what I went with...the 285's.

Also, I had become aware of others LOSING power from putting the larger tires on their trucks.....and I didn't want to do that. I felt the 285's were a good compromise there.

I just felt like 315's were just a little to big for the truck. The stock 265's were to small.....and IMO the 315's were to big. Visually speaking.

Additionally, I remember seeing a thread on here by another member where his rims were damaged from running the wider 315's because they are really for wider rims. I really like my stock Forged Aluminum Factory Rims and particularly the backspacing on them. An alternative would be to go to the H2 Wheels....but IMO they just stick out to far from the truck.

So the 285's just seemed to be the best all around compromise. Minimal loss in power, just right proportional size and no worries about using stock vs. aftermarket wheels. They are the "biggest" tire "rated" for the truck according to Discount Tire...where I bought them.
