Wow looks even better than I had pictured! But I agree, crank the front about 1", the ride will stay the same but the look will definitely make the difference

^^yes white letters out FTW, I will never never never have blackwalls out. I don't like it. To me, blackwalls out belong on a car, not a truck. Its just personal preference. Not saying the blackwalls out is ugly because I know a lot of trucks on here the look BA, but I just don't like it and never have.

nice man. makes them bfgs look beefier. im liking the bigger holes and backspacing.

Im naughty i never got my wheels aligned after the t-bar crank. I haven't noticed any uneven wear at 3000+ miles. figured i would have noticed something by now. I think that maybe the t-bar crank put my wheels back into proper alignment because i think my bars were a bit saggy to begin with. i don't know just a thought.
