Need input with guys with small lifts/big tires.

My truck doesn't have the gearing for 35's just yet, I was 4low everywhere. They're 3.27s in my truck, Im going to rock the 255s for now, then do gears soon..lift..then i'll step up to 305 85's. For now I think these will be perfect. Clearence was probably the biggest issue, I still need to fit my sled in and all that jazz.

These little guys are only .6" shorter than what my 35s measured out to, Im pretty happy with them. It is quite a big tire but even with the 3.27s the truck still moves pretty good. I think the whole thing with the 35s was that i was using huge 15x11 steel wheels, and the tires were wider, this setup probably weighs close to half of what my old setup weighed..gotta go try em out tonight

yeah.. I really need to get a spare when i get back to florida.. I just dont know what wheels to get.. I am thinking about alcoas, but not sure.. When i get to Florida i will get 5 aluminum wheels and a spare tire..
I cant wait to feel the difference in power and gas mileage the aluminum wheels will make over the steel

Yeah youll notice a huge difference for sure, I can't wait to go 36s on this truck, lift and locker, 4.56s or 4.88s. I'll probably just end up doing 2" coils up front, 4in leafs, take my blocks out, shackle, and some bilsteins all around, and a bodylift. Im happy with these for the time being though

Got a few more pics for anyone that might be interested. Since the last pics I've added my hids, 07 rear bumper, a stinger bumper from my buddys yota(still have to modify), 15x8 procomp 7031s, 35x12.5 dick cepek crushers, djm shackles, 3 inch bodylift, took out my front sway bar(still have to do the rear), i think that's about it. i think it just looks better with wide tires. These things dig to china once you start getting stuck though..but i like them lol.
