    Bilstein 5100s and Eibachs are installed. Such a nice combo, dakars coming soon to give me a little rake and support in the rear

    That was my second guess. I'm trying to get an idea if mine will look goofy if I stay on 31's..

    I like mine on 31s with eibachs and a lift out back. Only think I did different that really helped the look was wheel spacers. Looked awesome.

    Then input a plate bumper on and it didn't look so good..haha

    Ha yeah 32's are few and far between. I really want to go to 33's but my 31's are like new with 10k miles on them.. I know I could sell them but my dad would be pissed. He put them on within a week of selling me the truck haha.

    Yeah my wheels have a really low offset (3.25) so I think that will help the stance. I plan on copying the bruteforce fab hybrid for my front bumper. That thing is sex :drool:

    It looks awesome with the Eibachs! What do you have lifting you on the rear? It looks level already. I just saw you have a retro sticker on your hood. It looks awesome. I've been looking at some retro decals as well. Here a pic of the ones I want...
    Just not the color.
    Also, not sure where to get the retro decals. I heard sockmonkey doesn't make them anymore.

    Added a homelink this past weekend. Found one on eBay for $15. I didn't put it in the headboard just because I didn't feel like it.
