    I think this is the same truck, featured in Mini Truckin' Magazine:

    What's wrong with the wheels? I think they look pretty nice. It appears like some of the spokes were painted red in the Truckin' photo which isn't really my thing, but I've seen a lot worse.

    Interesting stuff... hopefully you'll be able to provide pictures as you install your new liners, roll the fenders, etc. for curious minds like myself ;) I'm not sure how you're going to roll the rear fenders because of the fender brace at the top. Are the 4wd liners somehow shaped differently than the 2wd liners... perhaps for more clearance?

    What are you plans for dealing with your speedometer being inaccurate if you increase your tire size? I'm pretty sure your speedo is going to be pretty far off of you increase the tire diameter by 2 to 3 inches.

    Keep in mind that as you increase your wheel and tire size, you'll also be increasing the weight. This will result in slower acceleration, longer breaking distances, and your suspension will have to work harder (i.e., your truck won't likely handle as well).

    It's my opinion that going with too large of tire might not look as good as you think. A tire with a lot of sidewall, even on a large diameter wheel, just looks odd for some reason. Sidewalls just aren't very attractive unless you're in the 4x4 crowd :eek:
