Post by cadillaccoo »

Hey

I am finding that alot of places do not carry this size of wheels and or tires to match. Les Swab can do a 16... If i move down to a size 16.. am i going to lose anything or make the truck run harder since it came stock ith 16.5.....

Do the 16's, it's one of the first upgrades I did to mine. 16.5s are all but obsolete, go with a minimum of 235-85-16 and you'll be at least stock hight, if not a tad higher. Go with your preference of hight of course. :thup:
