Monster TRUCK!
 
Hey! I got a 2000 F350 with a 32" lift. I was wondering if anyone has any experience with the Michelin XZL 53's. I have a set of Dick Cepek DC-1's that i would like to mount them on. Has anyone done this or seen this done? The tire shops around here are telling me that it will be nearly impossible to mount that tire on a drop center wheel.

The only pictures I have are with the 24" lift. This is before I did the 8" hanger lift to fit the 53's.

looks good, but man I bet that gas bill is crazy. is that just for show truck?

Edit: Where are my mannars Welcome to FTE!! :-headbang

haha thanks to everyone for the comments! and believe it or not, the gas bill isn't as bad as you would think. It gets around 14mpg, which is in no way good, but for a truck that size i can't complain!

I will get more pics up when we finish the rest of the lift.

tell us more about the truck. MPG don't seem all that bad.

Dude, you get better mpg than I do!!

I like your truck. Do you have any trouble with law enforcement (ride height) or is it just an offroad truck? Around here the State Patrol would have their
tape measures out right away for that. :-jammin

I know, I love it to death when someone complains of getting 14-18 mpg and I'm having to deal with 12.8 consistantly(and some of that is highway miles empty at 2k on the tach.).

Now that is a TRUCK! Nice set of tires you got there.:eek: :-jammin
Can't wait to see more pictures of it. Welcome to FTE. I just joined myself and I love it.:-headbang
