New tires and 1.5" wheel adapters!
Put on some 1.5 hub centric wheel adapters and Cooper Zeon LTZ 305x55x20! Very happy with the out come! Just the look I was hoping to achieve. Heres some pics, I found that pics of 1.5 spacers installed were hard to find. Here here's a few!
And a few with just the spacers, and my old 285x55x20 BFG's

hey man make sure the studs on the truck aren't too long and stick through the spacer and hit the rim. i got spacers and it made my wheel wobble like crazy until i ground down the studs

Be very careful with them. I had front spacers on my truck for rubbing purposes.
I made a U-Turn on the roadway and ripped through 5 bolts on the right front and 3 bolts on the left front. The force of the turn just tore them in half. It was immediately towed.
To clarify: the connection from the truck to the spacer was fine. The spacer to the rim was destroyed. I have pictures somewhere i can post.

You bet thanks guys. I'm gonna be keeping a close esy in them. But I baby my truck, no off road and no mud. Zero ruff use, so they should be fine. As far as the studs, I trimmed my one side studs about 1/16, then noticed my rims are machined out where the old studs stick out a wee bit. The stud could stick through an easy 1/4" and still be ok.
