DJM kit is on(thanks Jon), and I had to ditch the 22's. I put the stockers back on for the time being, untill I can figure out what I want to do? I will probably sell my 22's, and order another set of custom made wheels. This time around though, I'm thinking (if I can make it work) 21x9 for the front, and 22x10/10.5 for the rear? Here's a few pics. I got together today with Big E. and took a couple shots.(btw, the rear is the same height in my truck because I left the 2" blocks in, and decided not to use the 4" blocks that came with the kit)

Yes, rims were powder-coated. I'm not selling my stockers, but I will probably be selling my 22's. Hopefully all at once!

D - I would almost keep the stockers man. I think they look hawt powdercoated to semi-match your stripes. I love the look personally. How is the DJM install? Do you need special tools?

I like the stockers as well...but just too small for my taste!

The install was a piece a cake...considering I didn't do any of it!:biggrin: Now on the other hand....It looked like it was a major pain in the ass when Jonathan installed it for me! Especially when you cripple yourself partial way through this project(Jon smashed the crap out of his finger, but he continued on like a trooper :adore:)! As far as special tools, I didn't really see anything out of the ordinary being used, but it did help that Jon had a full garage of everything we needed! I would recommend using a lift though, that is if you have access to one!:top:

Well...according to Jon...I guess no it won't work!

A "40" series tire is way too much. Jon is running a "35" series tire on a 20" wheel and he's saying that he's rubbing a lot. If you want to run a 20" wheel, I would look into a "30" series and maybe that might work? I don't know what size tires they make in a "30" series...so it looks like you got a little homework ahead of you!:biggrin:

I really like the "rake" look of the truck and the way it sits right now. I might run a 3" block though for the time being.
