There ain't a thing wrong with those wheels. Just need properly matched tires. Go throw some 33x12.50 km2s on there and it will look right

km2s would look great on there. It'll need tires soon anyway because the guy that had it put too much air in the tires and the centers worn out lol.

thats a beautiful truck and those wheels are awesome they just need some MTZ's wrapped aroung them, and your truck looks scary close to my old truck.......


and im pretty sure that isnt a superlift by looking at the front drop crossmember, looks like the rcd or that cheap a$$ other lift they used to make, could be wrong but id have to see more pics......

Nice looking truck and I don't mind those wheels at all! Agreed on that crossmember... definitely not a Superlift one!

Whoa didn't even pay attention to the t-bars. Stupid rcd and it's coilovers. Must be that "other" lift with it's horrible ball joint spacers.

Thats a real nice truck. I like the wheels. I actually have the same ones on my Bronco, only in black and without the beadlock. They are Eagle 100 Series.

Well i crawled up under it a minute ago and found out the guy my dad bought this truck has no clue what he's talking about. It has an 8.8 and dude said it has a superlift lift kit when obviously doesn't. Its got the ball joint spacers in the front and for some reason it has 2 of the stock lift block type things stacked on top of eachother. ill have more pictures of the susp. tomorrow. My dads gonna be royaly pissed off when i tell him this lol
