I've been thinking about bigger tires.
I could either go big tires or dually, either option would be about the same price. Dually would be more unique and awesome... but big tires (like really big) would be pretty awesome also.

What size tires are on your whip?

EDIT: nevermind, I see you have 37" tires. If I go big I am thinking 38" or 40" tires and some new gears. 5.13 perhaps? IDK, I am pretty happy with my truck right now. I've been working on it since December 9th when I got it and it has come a long way. Right now I am thinking more along the lines of inside creature comforts, that sort of thing.

Sounds good, You should be able to fit 38's but you might have to lift a lil more to squeeze 40's.

Or cutout fender flares...


I do wish I had gotten the 10" lift though.

Duals all around? That would be unique!

You mean duals on the front? I think not... I've seen it done before on a '70s Ford, dually tractor tires front and back. It was really cool, but not practical or street legal.
