    Black grille guard with mounted kc road lights, 31x9.5x15 AT on stock rims. My future mod list: new white front bumper, Fat Bobs 2.75 spacer lift with rear AAL, american racing Flat Black Rims, 32x11.5x15 BFG A/T, satoshi grille with road lights mounted behind it, 8000k HID for all lights, 1'' Body Lift, new window tint, blacked out headlights and taillights, custom hood scoop, weather tech floor liners, LED dash cluster replacement, Front bilstein shocks, 40 series flowmaster, paint all my badges black.
    A negative offset sets the point off connection further back from the center of the wheel. It basically pushes the wheel out further away from the truck.

    Do you not have anymore pics of your truck? I have a white 08 access cab just like yours. I would like to see how it looks with a lift and new tires.

    Thanks for the pic, it looks real good. And I bet those 33's will be badass! And I'm a chrome guy. :) Although the all black looks pretty awesome. When are you planning on getting your new bumper and tires?

    Just checked it out and his truck is sick! I'm on an extremely low budget, so I'm just really hoping for Fat Bob's lift and some tires by the end of the summer. Maybe if I can save money like I should (which I have a problem with :)), I can even get some wheels. But mainly focusing on the lift and tires. I just wish I could do something like neslerrah!

    according to josh no. if you cut out those stupid useless black boxes in your wheel well behind the splash guard it gives you like an extra 2''. he had 33's on with his stock bumper with a -19mm offset rim is what he told me. idk. Do a test fit at discount tire once you trim up some of that splash guard you might hace to slightly trim the tip of the bumper. :rolleyes:

    That's true. I'll just have to do some testing to see how much trimming is required for each one. Thanks for your help though man.
