Hassled

Guys I have tires wheels and a lift kit that I am ready to order for my 97 F-150 4x4xcab was looking to go with 305/70/16 with 16x10 wheels and a 5" RCD lift

I am not a trouble maker and try to keep pretty low key, am I going to get hassled by cops and sticker stations? By the way I am in Wareham

I was going to go with 5" RCD lift and 33x12.50 but have since decided against it not worth the friggin aggravation! I have cranked a couple inches out of the torsion bars and will be dropping an add a leaf to the rear and put the 33x12.50 on. I used to wheel all the time but it has become harder and harder to find an area to go to. I usually spend a week in Maine every fall and ride my turck pretty hard when I am up there that is about the extent of it now.

all the fun spots are getting thin. here in southern NH there used to be all kinds of places. now you have to go west to goffstown at least to find any good spots. go with the 33's and do a 2 inch body lift. that will give the effect of a lift and allow you to run a little bit bigger tire with out rubbing.

I dropped the add a leaf on and 16x10 rims and 33 tires and it looks great, I am working on some upgrades in the tranny dept now and once that is done the only thing left will be the motor, I will drive it another year or 2 like it is and when it get's tired maybe a supecharged 4.6 hopped up :-)
