The wheel is an 17X8 Pro- comp. I believe our lug pattern is 5X5 so my best guess is this:

says:
-0mm offset
4.5" backspacing

for the wheel. Does that sound right? Cause the whole off road lifted look is all new to me. Im here to learn
they are 5x5.5

With that said then I dont know exactly what my wheels are then.

I know the tire says 33" and its a 17" rim. But from the site there are many 5.5 lug pattern types. It maybe a 9" wide rim

I just joined the forums so I figured I would post up a few pics. Just picked this 05 up in Tucson AZ about 2 weeks ago. I love the truck super nice.

It has a 3" body lift, 2" leveling kit, Window visors, black door trim, Muffler delete, 3 1/2" chrome exhaust tip, Roll in bed liner, Woodgrain dash is painted, nice hitch on the back, chrome fender flairs, sitting on 33" pro-comp tires on 17" pro-comp wheels and I think thats about it for now.

Plans to stay with the black on blue theme. Going for small black push bar up front, Black tube side steps, Black headlight housings, Black tails/third brake light. And the chrome fender flairs are going to get some bushwacker extended flairs.

I hope I get to talk with a few of you, and NICE looking trucks!

Here she is as of now:



Love the height and the color of this! Nice truck.

Here is my post accident photos.







It has a black eye, but I have the other one to put in after I get it reinspected along with HIDs and LEDs. I upgraded to a primed bumped cover with fog holes, and I am going to shave the grill emblem. The hood is gray gel coated, but I am going to color match the bumper, grill, and hood.

Here is my google photo album:

I also upgraded to an all aluminum two row radiator, nice and shiny

Oh man, it got beat up and has a nice scar in the hood now to let air in haha. You know that hood makes people 'round here pretty envious and you gotta tell me the part number for that radiator...
