And to those who don't like my idea, It could be worse. I could do this http://springfield.craigslist.org/cto/1087870425.html
Same reason people wear sandals in summer and big boots in the winter. No need for all terrain tires in the summer on a street truck.

There's nothing wrong with it, personally I like the *** up stance the truck has stock though....

Not rich, just always looking for great deals.

The 22" tires are not rated for winter and I had the 17's from my 02 Ram just no rims. I was going to get used stock rims and then found the moto metal ones for $525 shipped so it was an easy decision.

Not sure what happened to Brian @ slammed1, but there are a few different companies that make drop shackles for our trucks.

I live in NY so I need a 4x4.

Raider, I didnt mean to imply that you were a bitch, or that you were rich, it just kinda went. Nothing wrong with dropping the rear. You will just be excommunicated form the church of truck. lol
