Good looking rig Man!

Anyone here have a lead on where to buy BFG not at full price?

Thanks all, now I'm contemplating an ORD 2" lift (I just put Bilsteins on, and don't want to go higher and need longer shocks), but I do want their springs and rear spring shackle set-up.

I would have added a leaf or lifted it before cutting anything. It would look great with a little more clearance in there. Good choice on the wheels.

Hello, where do you find those 16 inch deep dish wheels, I still have the 16.5 wheels and can no longer find tires to fit.

I got them from Jeg's Performance, then had them powder-coated by a local 'coater.

They look really sharp.  I'm debating going back to the white wheels with stock caps next time I get tires.

The only aftermarket alternative that appealed to me would have been the old-school 5-slot mags, but finding them in good enough condition, 8-lug, and 16" was tough.

Is your truck stock height or did you lift it to fit that size of tires?
