Yeah, they're 16s.....I think 15s look silly with these size tires on them. I'm a lot about proportion to size kind of thing....everything has to fit in somewhere and it all needs to look like it belongs together. It's all about the details with me

I see what your saying. I agree with that. The 16s do look better with the larger tires. Just stay away from 16.5s.

I agree with that. I have 16.5's on mine and It's hard to find the tire you want in that size.

Gotta say, love seeing all of these amazing looking show trucks, but I really get a kick at looking at all the battle scared work trucks that have been used and abused the way they were meant to be. Maybe it's because I can relate with my truck idk. lol

Thumbs up to all these guys!

Well they're the same body style anyways. Mine's 2wd, and a longbed. I hope I catch the contest thread next time around.
