I have an 01 Quad Cab with KMC 18" Venoms. I have just recently added the 2" blocks in the back, but no new pics. (which by the way is a PITA if you don't have the right tools because the U-bolts don't fit just right) Just imagine the back of the truck level with the front on the following link;

I will get a current pic tomorrow and the exact tire size. Hope it helps.

Let me try to post it, if it doesn't work then send me an email and I can send you a zip file of some pics;



Let me know if it works. Of course the second pic is before the lowering block. The first one should show you how much wheel well is left with the 18's. Hope this helps.

I have 22's and the space around the wheel wells is the same as it was with the stock rims. You really cant get rid of the space with out dropping the truck. Bigger wheels would just cause them rub the truck body.....

Couldn't you get a taller tire? I know I have taken up a bit more wheel well space with the tires I have. Now there is a point to where the taller you go the thinner they have to be or you will start to rub the inner wheel well in turns. It isn't a lot, but every little bit helps.

Boze is available at www.bozeforged.com. Talk to Zack, he owns a Dakota and knows all the specs you'll need to fit various rims on your trucks.

Well, how do you get prices on the Boze rims? It doesn't say anything anywhere on the site.

Most manufacturers won't quote prices on their products unless they're a direct-sales entity. Lots of companies sell Boze Forged wheels so you should do a web search to discover prices. The people at Boze can direct you to recommended distributors.
