Wink Anybody running 22" out there? (pic's please)
All I can say right now is that I have something up my sleeve and I need to see if 22" are too big for this body style. Thanks in advance.

Re: Anybody running 22" out there? (pic's please)
When I bought my Panel truck, it came with 22's. I think they are too big. I think 20's is the biggest that looks right, IMHO.

No I don't as the PO had heated the front and rear coils (and badly at that).

You might be able to get a rough idea comparing this pic, which has 15" slot mags. I think the tires were 235/75-15. Compare the stance with one of yours might get you close to the drop amount.

15s must have been terrifying to install because you doubled the amount of wood holding the truck in place!


I had 22s on my last truck, they look just right with enough drop.

rear bags only

With all the extra rubber, I was afraid they would just roll right over a single block.

Right now I'm still day-dreaming/toying with the idea of giving the pumpkin a wheel makeover, but I'll decide after next weekend, that's if all the planets line up accordingly.

Keep in mind the stance will have to be adjusted to the bigger wheels.
