Nice truck, but you met none of the requirements he was looking for.

ghettoluxury,. I love the way your truck sits. That is just about perfect IMO.

Would love to see some more examples too. I am inheriting an 83 GMC with quite a bit of lift, and I want to return it back to a state that is more in line with what I want to do with the truck, mainly, use it as a truck. Hopefully one that looks good too.

Before I lifted mine, the suspension was completely stock and I ran 285/75/R16 Cooper STT's. They never rubbed and they dug through just about anything. Here's a pic.

wow that looks great! what does a 285/75 equal? I think it's a 33x11.50 right?
