    Thats going to look sweet!!

    I had a 2005 Silverado crew cab 6" Pro Comp lift, 35" Mickey Thompson Baja Claw, and 18x12.5" Weld Racing Velocity 8 wheels.

    The 33's look too small to me as well, but If you dd go bigger than you sacrifice a lot more.

    Thanks man, I wish Welds were still around as much as they used to be. They're pulling stupid prices for them now, otherwise I'd be getting a set.

    So since you have a NNBS the I guess the wheels that fit on a NBS wont work for you either.

    Here was a 6" on 35's that I had.


    Same truck with 3" body and 37's



    I wasnt trying to thread crap so im done. I was giving my opinion, and I can totally understand not wanting to buy tires again.
    And the pic of the red truck was more of a joke cuz it took the cen cal look to the next level. It reminds me of mini trucks on hydros with 13" daytons

    Your inspiration truck is SICK. My CC 2500 has a 6" and it has 35's on 20's. I am gonna crank the keys up and swap the 4" block out for a 3". Sounds like we like the same style stance. I would look into the BMF or fuel wheels.

    God created turbo lag so nitrous trucks could have a chance.

    Thanks Mark, I saw the pics of your 2500, it looks awesome. I like the plans you have

    I've got about 4-5 different wheels that I'm indecisive about, the Moto Metals I talked about in the OP, chrome BMF Novakanes (if I decide I don't want 20x12s), chrome Fuel Hostages, or chrome Fuel Throttles. Need to make up my mind pretty soon, lift will be here this week.

    Your truck but..



    Cali style is gay. Big lift, tiny tires, and 12'' wide wheels is a Fail. Retarded mall crawler. But that's just me.

    I also feel bad for the guy mounting a 295 on 12'' wide wheel. I wouldn't go around a turn to fast, pop that sucker right off the bead.

    Its all in your style and your money so my opinion doesnt matter but it doesn't look right to me. When I see it I think "spent all the money on the lift but ran out of cash for the right tires" the nice thing is if you do get tired of them you can always sell for a bigger size or upgrade when they wear down.
