i like the way it looks with 40's on 24's... it gives it more proportion to me. if you ran a 20'' rim with a 40'' tire, the rim would look too small. i think this combo is perfect. the rims and tires dont look too small or too big on eachother. (IMO)

alright so this whole thing really has me thinking... By adding a quicklift and a BL, how much more height does that give? 6.5" up front? So I'd need 3.5" blocks in the rear? I'm not sure what all the quicklift actually lifts. If I understand right, it doesnt really change the CV angle either? What about ride quality... does the truck still have as much flex?
Man I'm so tempted to do this... I'd have almost 10" lift and be able to fit 38's or 40's without too much added expense (all the expense is in the wheels/tires which i'll be getting anyway).
The biggest thing stopping me now is, my truck still fits in my garage (might clear by less than an inch, but still fits). With any more lift or even bigger tires the truck wont fit...which means it goes outside in the North Dakota winter...

i feel bad if my truck sits out in the sun for too long let alone a cold dark night. i dont want her to feel abandoned.
