you mean the same "load limiting wheels" that everyone runs on their lifted trucks?

Definitely not "everyone". Only the posers.

I guarantee you, hardly any of the trucks on here with aftermarket wheels have hubcentric wheels. Simply because there aren't many manufactures that offer them.

Sure you probably have, but if not, check out this expired listing on ebay. Was watching it myself. I plan to pick one up lifted for the first year, but then lower it for the 2nd year. 3rd year gets sold and on to the next ride.

this was my old truck and i had it lowered on a different set of 24s. i now have the 2011 lowered on 24s identicle to this one but i dropped the rear about two inchs and put airbags on it for towing. it rides 20x better than stock and 150x times better than any 4x4 i have riden in.

I see your point but you may be going a little overboard by saying you can out tow and out run ANY superduty. Especially for your second post ever lol.

Your not really laughing out loud so no need for lol. Let the Haters hate. All im saying is that a lowered superduty is just as good as a lifted one if not better.
