anyone got pics from the fender with 10" wheels prefer 16x10s with 305/70/16s or 315/70/16s so i can see how far they stick out?

Instead of buying wheel spacers and keep putting more and more lift on your truck get new tires. Not only will it effectivly lift your truck in better ways than any other way it will also make your truck not look some damn goofy.

What is there to call BS on? 4.5 bs and 16x10 is going to stick out nicely..

And to OP, I wouldn't go more than 1" spacer if your doing a 16x10.. it will stick out bro style...

I'm thinking of doing 2" spacer with my stock rims for the time being until I can buy the rims Westtn has.

Chase This A.J,

Don't listen too this fools. Lawrenceburg is the wide wheel capital of america, as i told you before, just buy some 3 inch wheel adapters and be done with it, this guys prolly never even seen a 15x14 on a truck too see what it looks like, its looks damn good!, 12's and 14's are the ****!, Yeah if you wanna talk **** about wide wheels your a damn idiot!, cause thats the only way to go is 12's and 14's! period. I got an 03 Chevy S10 on 15x12 Billet Speciality GTP15's with 3 inch wheel adapter spacers!, Cowl Hood, Wiper Cowl, and too much too list lol..., yall need to come to Lawrenceburg Tennessee too see what were talking about then maybe you would understand!

You can see how big the holes got wollard out in the rims. Sooo thats the reason I went to the 52's and sold the 49's
But spacers arent always bad... Mine hugged the lip on the Hub and were fine, they never moved or loosened... I've seen many, many rock crawlers runnin em and they take a beatin... I'm not big on the Non hubcentric ones that Harley posted

Default at the dude with the spacers!

I'm sorry dude im trying too sound like a ahole or anything but that looks like crap man, you need to take that lift off there and lower it and bulldog it in the back(lower the back end) then take those 35's off and put some 15x12's on some 295/50 street tires(50's), but im just trying too help you out!, not trying too sound rude!
