Before and after, New tires and wheels.

I just got some Maxxis Bighorns 32x11.50's on Eagle Alloy 058 15x8's. I cranked the t-bars about 3 turns.

Yes I am missing a center cap. I have one on the way.

Great comparison pictures! I love the way it looks and makes me happy because I just bought the same exact tires in the same exact size lol. They are supposed to be here tomorrow. I'm glad I bought them now.

Can I ask how much you bought them for? I went through www.tire-easy.com and they seemed pretty reasonable.

I paid $515 for the tires (shipped) and $310 for the wheels, lugs and center caps (shipped).

Nice deal! I spent $559 but they look worth it. Who did you go through? I love the wheels BTW.

Select Tire on ebay. Wheels also came from ebay.

I also bought my truck off of ebay back in 2003. LOL

Looks really good, but def have to crank the t-bars just a tad more, and you'll be perfect.
