packrat42 · 03-23-2011, 10:57 PM

Damn, That looks good. Nice lookin' truck you have there.

bucketObolts · 03-23-2011, 10:57 PM

Looks Killer. good choice

truknut · 03-23-2011, 10:57 PM

The truck and the new shoes look good. How much is it lowered, and how?

cstm68 · 03-23-2011, 11:00 PM

its bagged with plates, cups and drop spindals up front and a c notch in the rear bags are d2600 on all corners

Zoomin · 03-23-2011, 11:14 PM

There's a reason so many people get those, and it's because they look sooo good. Great struck, great stance.

**bigsnookmaster** · 03-23-2011, 11:16 PM

Great looking combo!

**70cst** · 03-23-2011, 11:19 PM

Very impressive!!

BlackZ28 · 03-23-2011, 11:34 PM

I really like, Good choice!

**lolife99** · 03-23-2011, 11:48 PM

Looks perfect.

Which rearend is under your truck?
71-72 or the narrower 67-70 housing?
Also,... how big of a spacer on the rear wheels?

Spoof · 03-23-2011, 11:51 PM

Nice choice, they really suit your awesome truck

cstm68 · 03-24-2011, 12:09 AM

nastyc10 · 03-24-2011, 05:15 AM

Looks good! sweet truck!

c10crazy · 03-24-2011, 06:34 AM

Is the spacer a 6x5.5 to 5x5? or did you change the axles to 5 luggers? Nice!

1stchevy · 03-24-2011, 08:14 AM

That is sweet!

MattyBs71 · 03-24-2011, 04:16 PM

Nice! Lot's of WA people on this board! How often do you drive the truck? Mine is a daily driver and I'm thinking about bags for it but don't want to if it's too much of a hassle for everyday driving.

dougo · 03-24-2011, 04:25 PM

That's looks really good. One of my favorite wheels....
nice looking truck too!

Absolutely beautiful truck, perfect stance, perfect color and now perfect wheels! Awesome job on this one.... so I assume if you (read me!) had a 72' rear end, then you could skip the spacers? Or maybe just a 1/4" spacer? The 71/72' rear is 1" wider than the 67-70' on each side correct?

EDIT: Also, can you give out the back spacing you used and the tire sizes?

big_al_71 · 03-24-2011, 05:08 PM

love that truck!!!

Andy4639 · 03-24-2011, 05:52 PM

Nice choice. Nice look. Nice truck. I installed mine a little over a week ago now. I had to use a 1/4" spacer but haven't drove it since I installed it. Been sitting in the garage. I went 8.5 up front and 10 out back.

mixermike · 03-24-2011, 07:43 PM

those really look good. i can't decide if i should go with your choice or chrome.i have been debating this in my head for months.LOL

hotrodhomi · 03-24-2011, 07:47 PM

tire size?

Andy4639 · 03-24-2011, 08:45 PM

Here is the link for mine.
It has all the good and bad in it.
