This is an older picture, the grill is painted black again, the head lights and turn signals are all white, and the only chrome left on the truck is on the bumper. Same stance.
16x10 all around or 16x8s up front? Directional tire is a must with this setup. Im actually leaning twards the cragar wheels in black.

I think they will stick out about 1" or so from what im aware of. I have never fit 4wd style wheels on a lowered 2wd truck either. I have always had these type of wheels on 4x4s with the tires mounted already, so i havent every really looked at the offset.

Any wheel selection for our trucks suck. Drag wheels, offroad style wheels, the only thing that is offered is 17 and up street wheels. Is it just me or is it really this way? I dont want to custom order wheels for 600ea either...
Would a 15" wheel lock style wheel look silly, cuz im going to need to run a bigger tire obviously, thats really not the look im going for. Along with that grinding down the brakes will suck. I was seriously considering the black beadlock the Cragar black street wheel is a 15x8 up front and a 15x10 in back and look sick, but i dont want too much of a tall tire. if i would go through the hassel of grinding the brakes whats the widest lowest profile you guys would run on a 15" wheel on a 2wd truck with a 3/4 drop?

Aite here it is, after 2 weeks of searching. Here she be, 16x10 6x5.5 bolt pattern fake beadlock, procomp wheel. Whats the lowest and widest tire i should i run on this wheel? I do not want a super tall tire, i would rather have a lower profile then to tall of a tire. Here is the one and only wheel i could find, and of course these things are $225ea.

check out 'marsh racing wheels' their race wheels are only offered up to 15 inch it seems but they have offroad wheels with or without beadlocks up to 20" any offset you want for reasonable cost on the smaller sizes
