Since he has a 95 he could also fit 15 inch rims which would look even sweeter cause then you can fill that empty space up with tires!

I went with 265 because my truck would look like it had its pants down! It is even worse with you 4x guys since your trucks come from the factory with a 2" lift...right?

Well just to clear up this color issue i aint black and im not chasing the whole black rap image of 24 inch rims. Hell the main reason im doing it is from reading American truck mags that u guys prolly read also.

My truck is a 2wd people and is daily driven on the street! I did take it off road but i sold my KTM due to injuries ridin MX so theres no real point in pushin big tyres around if shes gonna be pavement bound.

I didnt mean to start any arguments but this is a dodge forum is it not? and it caters for all people who own all makes of Mopars. I dont see a 4x4 only in the title??

I am one of a small minority that owns 1 of these fine peices of machinery out here and finding help on stuff is non exsistant in Australia.

I enjoy reading this forum cause alot of u people have alot of knowledge on these trucks and i apprieciate ur help...

I thank u all for any imput u have given me on my question.

Have you seen the axles he has onthat thing. Sheesh all they are is a huge *** gear box. He says it takes a hoist just to take the cover off. Those pictures off him wheeling it are just shweet.

they are 2.5 ton rockwells....just imagine the 5 ton rockwells....(there's a guy on pavementsucks who put them in his dodge)...but for the question on 24's. they will fit you will probably needa 30 series tire, and that tire shop will hate you for making them mount those rubberbands....

downunder_dodge:Some of the guys here are 4x4 owners. Many of us are not. There is some GREAT information and several of the guys are actual mechanics that are giving you free advice to boot!!!

Here in America the gangster rappers have the 'Dubs' that just make many of us sick(not the good looking sick the physically ill sick) as we do not identify with that ilk. Many cool cars have this stupid look and they are just trying to protect what they love from something that may not look right. I pass a guy with an awesome old car every day and every bump he hits causes blue smoke to puff out of the wheel wells. That is his tires being eaten up. If you want to do this, go ahead, but make sure you post some pictures! So as a daily driver, I may caution you against this. Also, if you have a blow out, you may not be able to put on your OEM spare. So you may need 5 rims and carry it in the back.

I am learning too, and the guys here are a great resource for us. How about that shaker hood of greenmachine? Or those lambo doors, or Indy actually trying to make a truck that could compete and the Indy 500? Have you seen orange that 408? Stay with us! Follow your dreams man!!!
