I'm keeping the stock Hight,
the truck is a 95% street/highway use vehicle
but does hit some trails/snow/mud once and a while.

leaning towards some Matte Black MB 72 wheels (18x9)

or the gloss black with polished lip (same model and size)

planning on running some 275/65-18 GoodYear Wrangler Dura Track

GoodYear Wrangler Silent Armor

Looks like the glossy black with the polished lip and I think you will like the ride from the BFG over the dura track

I'm not putting 22" wheels on my rig,

for one, the cheep ones are double the price of the wheels I'm looking at
two, the tires are much more expensive than 18's (package is over $1K more than what I'm looking at)
three, no "Truck" tires (A/T) for 22" wheels
four, I need to keep some sidewall for tire flex when I air down on the dunes
five, low profile tires drive like crap
and finally, I don't like the look of them :supergay:


thanks anyways

How bout, MB Wheels Style 72 in Chrome, and some 285/75/16 Nitto TG's?

Or I still have my tires and rims for sale...$1000 for both or $500 For the tires. They only have 3,000 Miles on them. 265/75/16 BFG A/T's. Perfect Shape. Those would go good on your factory rims.

your thread said SOLD



I do like your wheels, (but with the price of shipping, I can get them brand new for about a hundread dollars more)
and the BFG's are on my "short list" of tires I'd go with

but I really think that if I'm gonna spend money on new wheels, I'm gonna go 17-18"

True, However the guy backed out on the sale and I gave up a while on trying to sale them.

But I understand where you are coming from on the shipping.

Yeah, but they're so sick! If I could afford it, I would be rocking the shit out of those tires!
