those are 18's? looks small compared to the sidewalls. I was thinking that 18's were the biggest i would go on my truck but I may want to rethink that

They look a little small but when you go upto the truck they look a lot bigger than 18"..... i have always wanted to get this truck and the rims and tires are going to stay on until it gets lifted a little more.... maybe..... then i want 40's with 22" wheels!

Looking good.

I personally like the smaller rims and larger tires. Gives it a more stout look. Plus, when you air down you have more sidewall to play with and gives you a larger "footprint" for various terrain.

i want the factory tow mirrors too. craigslist and ebay seem to be a hit or miss. im thinking maybe a local junkyard may be the best bet
