I'm in the "I hate your rims" camp. But the rest of your truck is badass, so it's a dilemma for me.

@OP: You won't find too many fans of big rims and lowered trucks around here. Rims that size are going to hurt your ride quality, and the weight will wear out your brakes and suspension parts faster. It's your truck, go for it.

Man, I got no problems, It's not my truck. Do what you want just know what you're getting into before you pull the trigger.

This is what you get when you ask for other opinions on the interweb.

All these posts, and I think one of'em answered the ops question, half-a$$ed at that.

Yeah op, you can run 24's, as mentioned. With any kinda sidewall, you'll probably have to at least level it, as mentioned. You'll be running a lotta extra weight there, so yes, it will be detrimental (sp) to your mpg's.

IIRC, he didn't even ask any opinions, he was just asking for facts.
