Did the stock wheels fit with the lift without issues? I have similar to stock spec custom wheels and would like to keep them if they will fit with a six inch lift.

They didnt look to small with the 6" but after the BD Lift it just looked odd. I have read alot of people asking what they look like with 6" lifts and 9" of lift so I figured I would get something posted for people. Really compleats teh look once you get the larger tires.

They will hit the tie rod ends and tear your rims up. I had to get 1.5" Spacers and they they fit fine. It was ok but not a decent perminent upgrade. I had to tighten the lugs twice before I got the new rims. They kept loosening up and giving the truck mean shakes going down the road. Only had the stock rims on for about a month so haveing to tighten them twice was alot. It would have sucked to have to do it all the time.
