NEW Wheels and tiresssssssssssssssssssssss

so.....got my wheels from Summit racing:
http://store.summitracing.com/partde...0&autoview=sku

15x8 five spoke style
3.75 backspace

got my tires installed, BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KOs, size 235/75/15.

I was going to do 30x9.5s, but skipped it and went with what I already had sized, as I liked the look.

truck looks a hell of a lot better on these than the scruffy aluminum american racing saw type wheels
I shoulda washed it, but we are expecting 1-3" of sleet/snow tonite, so I didn't bother, i'll wait til the salt is dried up:D

I really like the look of that wheel on the black color of your truck.

I do very little offroading, except when hunting, so combine that, with the 2.5L lack of grunt, and the fact that I liked the 235s on the truck, I just stuck with them.

it was only $4 diff in tire size cost, I just wanted the 235s.
