A 1992 Chevy Caprice that has no paint left to speak of, a broken out grille, a saggin headliner and possibly one taped up window.

Just kidding, I have no idea. Good luck though. A vehicle this heavy on that large of a wheel and inevitably rubber band thickness tires will most likely net you a few replacements or repairs in the not so distant future.

I know someone with an 06 and had to replace the tranny bc of 24's, my opinion its not worth it bc it rides like crap and tears up your suspension and brakes.

well my buddy has an 06 with 24's. I know that his rear end is dropped to match the front. He said all the tech did was use lil spacers and that was it

looks like you will just need the rims and some lug nuts plus a jack to get the truck of the ground and a lug wrench, that should do it. oh yah almost forgot you will need 4 tires as well. good luck post some pictures when its done. if you need any more help just let us know.
