That looks great. That size of tire sure looks natural on these trucks. The factory tires look more like shopping cart casters.

What backspacing are you running there? It's hard to tell---do they stick out much past the fenders?

I love my 315's, makes it look mean! You might need a little more lift cause my the front tires rub just a hair when i'm four wheelin. Good lookin truck! What kinda wheels are you running?

Eagle alloys 16x8 and the backspacing is 4 3/4". they stick out a little but nothing major, some fender flares have made it to the wish list though!! Thanks for the compliments.

looks good, i just added 35s on my 95 ctd 4wd last weekend, i already had a leveling kit. I mounted them on 16.5x10 centerlines w/ 4.5" backspacing, they stick out a decent bit but look good.

Those look good! Now I know EXACTLY how my truck will look when I go to 315s. Right now I have 285s with the leveling kit. What gears do you have? Any differance at highway speed?

Just filled back up today, Ill post mpg when i refuel, but at 70mph I went from 2100rpm to right at 1800 rpm...... 355 gears is what is in mine. I noticed a little loss on the low end but not much at all, and driving is good on hills that i used to pull in 5th I still can and steeper ones that I had to gear to 4th there is no change. I really like the way the 315's look and I like the ride alot better!!!

Awesome lookin' truck man but I think you should probably look for a new back bumper before you get fender flares, what happened?
