<< i am getting ready to put some aftermarket wheels and new tires on my 50
1/2
ton
the suspension is completely stock considering 15x8 on rear with 275/60
and
15x7 on front with a smaller 70 series tire i am looking for good height
so
not kill the already low gear ratio and also to try to get as much tire
underneath the rear
as i can without clearance problems do any of you have any guidance or
recommendations? what are your feelings on 14's on the front to give it
that
"raked" look? thanks michael layton >>
Messes with the alignment a bit, may need to shim the front axle to
compensate, not a major task.
But personally I've gotten away from too much difference in front/rear tire
hiegth now that I run a posi-traction rearend.
