    Original size is noted as 195/75/R14 which I don't really have a problem going down too but was hoping to at least save the rims that are on it if possible.

    Thanks, yeah the quote I got this morning on the 215/65/R16 AT's was $1105 CAD so I could save some cash going down to 15's or 14's.

    14s are cheap. 15s are good as well. Definitely save some money and add a few more mpgs

    Thanks, probably the easiest solution all around and just sell these rims & tires. I'll miss the AT look but I'm not sure I want to mess around with the 3" spindle lift to clear these.

    Not only that but the lug pattern is pretty wide spread. You can get some mustang wheels like I did for a temporary look.

    A set shouldn’t cost you a whole heck of a lot. I got a set (mustang wheels) with decent tires for $225.

    Dang, yeah not bad. I just got quoted $124 each for tires alone (BF Goodrich Radial). Makes a $600 spindle lift not look too bad....

    That’s a 25.5/7.7-14 tire. So anything in between and you should be good. I’d find some 15” wheels and go that route. 15” stamped steelies for less than $80 each. A set of 5 with tires are less than than your 16” tire quote likely.

    Thanks, probably what I am going to end up doing. Some cheap steel 15's, a Non- AT tire and then sell these Procomp rims and All-Terrain's. Not sure what this guy's plan was with putting these on.

    My 2000. 315/75/16, 275k miles. Unfortunately the PO rolled it, I put it together enough to wheel it, but the cab was done, and cracking apart, so I’ve torn it down, and am using the frame and running gear from her under a 2001 double cab prerunner.

    Every time I see your truck I smile and then fear for what my truck will look like in 75k miles.

    It's a good time though, I hope over there in "beater-land" I hope it'll be a while before I give into the paint wanting to be while pinstriped instead of red.

    Project 4xI bumper mod well underway. Getting closer to the end. Cutting and fitting the hoops currently.

    Thanks Sean. I really like the Shrockworks hoops better and purchased the three bent pieces from them for $100 shipped. I kind of just wanted to do it myself. I plan to do Rustoleum truck bed and then a coat of semi-gloss or satin.

    I did a thread about it that I think will explain things for anyone that is interested.
