Yeah, offset is the same as previous years, 19.05mm, and 20 x 9.


I'm just not sure about putting the nerfs on, I think it may be too much in the chrome department.

Well I finally had time to come in and check out your post that I could not wait to see.. Looks awesome man, I love the 285/50/20 on our trucks it makes our Dakotas look mean as hell, I have had more compliments since I put mine on, love the looks of the coopers.. I was in a auto parts store yesterday and a customer in there asked me is that your dakota out there and he said man that is a nice dakota..

I really need to get my rear mud flaps on, just haven't had time.. I see you cut allot of mud flap off the front, kinda wondering why so much? I know its not a really big deal because these 20" tires really fill up the wheel well allot LoL so you cant see it as much.. I rotated my coopers for the first time today 3000 miles and I see where at the real hard turn I have a little rubbing on the sway bar and frame but not bad but it does a tad bit of rubbing LOL..

I say go with the nerf bars but the only regret I have with mine is I need to make mine black to match my black and red theme that I got going on.. I will be making mine black when I get around to it, I know you can tell its a bigger tire rolling down the road, I know when I first put mine on you can tell a difference.. But being a bigger wheel with weight and all it really haven't any adverse effects with the truck so far and I dont think there will be.. looks good man long live coopers LOL.. Cya Slick

Hey put a picture of our trucks together and see if you like the nerf bars on it or not since our trucks are pretty much the same.. Cya Slick

I'm not usually a fan of 6 spoke wheels, but those look really good on your red truck.
I believe that the nerf bars would bring the chrome farther back, and tie in with your bull bar nicely. For you, I say bring on the shine!

wheels are nice. I like them a lot. adn Yes to the nerf bars. as was mentioned above, they would tie in your bull bar and wheels nicely.

I had some on, but they were shot. I kinda like it without them, maybe I'll put them on.
