    Hey ive got a 275/55 17 with a 6in drop in the rear. It looks damn near perfect. I still havnt seen anyone with that setup in the rear. I think the 295/60 would set that truck just right with the drop hes talking about.

    Thought the super 8s would be a lot lighter since Crager was producing them. I like the steel wheel look but dont like the steel wheel weight. Doesnt Summit sell the same wheel for about 35 bux a piece?

    Uhhhh I will send you my intake when I have the money for another one...or just another one to put on... I need one to drive!

    Uhh they come in like 35 sizes or something like that...Ill post the link to the cragar site with the sizes.

    See the thing is....I have been searching for tire sizes in 16 and 17....265/45-60 up to 315/45-60...and I have found like one or 2 tires.

    My 285/75's are 31.5" tall....I think that 295/60's are a lil shorter...not by much tho.

    I still want a little lower profile. Like maybe a 50-55?
    I dunno...I havent really looked for 17's as much as I did for 16's.
