got new shoes on the 78

Pictures by weez440 - Photobucket well i finally got new tires on my 78 f-150 they are 35 inch dick cepek mud country's and they look awesome. i had some weather cracked bfgoodrich tires on it before which worked but i didn't feel they were safe anymore. i got this truck a little over a year ago and have done so much to it, i put in a new motor, redid the whole steering, fixed all the little electrical demon's and just basically worked on all mechanical things and haven't done anything until now that makes it look more pleasing to the eye. next on the list i am going to get a new 4 inch rough country lift. and i have to weld in a new floor pan on the drivers side. i had a list starting this spring of about 30 things i wanted to get done to it this year and i already did about 22 of them.

Looks good but....Is your truck stock height? Sure thought some 35's would look more packed in there than that.

How's the road noise?
