Lmao! No offense taken road pilot. Different strokes for different folks. My last setup was more refined but this time around I decided to really let HILLBILLY in me shine! However I stopped short of the glass packs...still thinking about it though. Hahahaha! Here's my old truck...probably a little more your style.

I think the flares help create a more "refined hillbilly" look ...

Looks great! A few more pics from different angles would be great. Is the color magnetic? Looks really nice in contrast with the grill, good planning and great outcome!!

325 (tire width) * .5 (sidewall height) = 162.5mm

162.5 * 2 (2 sidewalls) = 325mm (easy enough so far )

325mm = 12.7953''

12.7953 + 22 (sidewalls plus wheel diameter) = 34.7953''

As 9'er said... basically 35s.

(I think I did that right)

They actually are a little wider than a normal 35/12.50/22 so they aren't stretched out so they don't look so thin.

Around here, driving around around in winter with mud tires sticking out that far outside of the wheel wells/flares would cause so much freakin sling of snow, slush, road salt, gravel, and rocks that you'd go through a windshield a week and need to scrape the debris off the door just to get in the truck...

Could you run a higher offset wheel to get the tires tucked in more and still fit those tires?
