    Yeah, seen most of the photos & some vids of your Wheelin'. It's pretty slick stuff, ain't got a lot of stuff like that around here!

    which tires are those? do you commute at all with them? or do you use another vehicle for driving around?

    Judging by the picture, they're Pitbull Rockers, assuming 35" might be 37"s hard to tell from this angle:cool:

    Like a boss:cool:

    Just measure Mark's distance for the tire sticking out on the 2" kit & add an 1.5" (approx.) and that should give you a pretty close location. Definitely going to look like a monster!

    I know there are places I simply couldnt fit if I was 3.5 over, however there is almost always a way around them :D

    Looking good:thumbsup:

    I like how you kept almost all the bed, can't really tell but did you cut a notch into the front of the wheel well for the tube that wraps around to the frame?

    Oh I meant like more of a hole through the bedside, aside from the cutting for tire clearance.

    Definitely something I want to do with my rig at some point :cool:
