I am so proud of my grandfathers truck , I have it stock , lowered , different rims , 1000s of hours of enjoyment and oil running through my veins , change through everyday fabricating moment and the joy of making it better every time I change my mind to make it look different then the time before !!! Thanks for the compliments of our heritage .

Looks good! Had the same size wheels and tires on mine . . . . . for a while . . . . then I got bigger ones. They look good on a lowered truck.

If you get 10's with 6" of backspacing, they'll still stay tucked in the rear fenders! At least mine did.
