Message:
find out how much you want to lower it, THEN decide on the tire... dont try to work around the tire size.

I just don't understand why a person wants to pay over 2000 bucks for such huge rediculous looking taco wheels and ruin the looks of a good truck. just my opinion.
and i know...opinions are like a$$holes...everyone has one, and they all stink.

tire rack doesnt want to sell you tires? isnt
that the nature of their business, to "sell tires"
who cares if they think its safe or not. a
business refusing money for tires they have in
stock, sounds a little strange to me.

monkey guy, not everyone pay's big bucks for big rims.

tell the guy at tire rack that you drive a differant vehicle, like a accord, or lexus if he dosent want to sell you tires. its not like he will know you are lying.

I have 255/35/20's and lowered 5 and 6. 3 inch springs and 2 inch arms, hangers and 2 inch blocks in rear, weld in frame notch. But anyways, my truck is in the body shop right now getting the fender lip rolled and inner wheel wells raised up. I was rubbing bad. I would do what kota on 20's did and go with 4 and 5, 6. Makes it a lot easier. They look bad ass though. I will post up some pics when i get it back.
