I do think they look small for the lift, but that is a personal opinion. I also think my tires are too small for my truck (still running factory stock BFGs) but I am cheap so I will wear them out first, then replace them with something that fills out the fenders a little better.

That is a nice looking truck.

I did notice that your RR tire seems to be mounted backwards and it looks like someone spray painted over your license plates!!

Looks good and tires are fine if its a DD. But if you dont drive it all the time, then some bigger ones would set it off more. For me though, I would tint out the windows, bug shield and rain guards for the windows to start. With that nice green color, its just screaming for some darkness haha. Nice truck again.

Yeah it my DD. Do you guys know how to measure a suspension lift? I just want to know the exact lift and not have to go with what the previews owner told me.

Get the stock height at the highest point in the wheel well, subtract that from your wheel well's height, and subtract half of what the tires added.

So 31" tires stock, 35" tires now
30" high wheel well stock, 44" now

44-30 = 14
14 - 2 = 12

Those are just example numbers.
