Dumb in my opinion. Might as well throw some of those spinners on there with some neon. Did anyone notice where the tires have been rubbing on the lower arms of the lift kit?

It's pretty ridiculous, no doubt. What ever happened to TASTE? I mean, the kind that understands that things have to be in proportion to look right?
This guy probably thinks a woman who's 4'10" and 38DDD is "proportional". I disagree.
If you want something that looks about right, try some 18s or 20s.
Those big rig tires look almost as dumb as 8" stacks on a CTD

I dont mind bigger rims, but those things are huge and the looks are so vanilla. Looks just like all of the boring rims I get on my peterbilts. I like rims with style, those are just lame to me. Bet the tires would last a long time however.

Like em? was the question. They leave me cold, not "cool" They are way overkill and for what? 19.5 is ok but 22.5's are too big. And he has what? 24.5?
To each his own, if you want a fastion statement, buy it. It can't ride good, too much unsprung weight compared to the full weight.

Like someone said in the beginning of this post, "Different Strokes". Take a look at the new Diesel Truck Mag some guys have been talking about, hard to find a featured truck with shoes smaller than 22's? Must be like back in the old day's were 17's were HUGE looking when compared to most peoples 14's & 15's. Wanna bet 10 years from now a 16" rim will be as uncommon as 13's are now?

i like the truck for the most part. i would think about trading the 24s for some 22.5 big rig rims and lowering it a couple inches just so you could use it. throw a 6 speed in there and some stacks and it's my dream truck! lol

22.5 wheels with low profile tires would not be too bad, probably would not have that ape hanger look, maybe about the same hight as the 19.5 with large tires. Thing of it is that you could buy a truck for what he has in those 24.5 wheels and tires. How do you get into it???
