Looks good .

How long did you wheel on the stock 30 splines with 44's?

and Im about to get my 44" boggers on thursday and I think . . I got the same wheels as you. Do they have enough offset for a "OK" steering radius? and any problems with the 16.5's?

Wheeled em for a while on my 77 250. Broke a hub before the shaft, so no complaints. I rubbed my springs, and had to get a 2.5" spacer. No problems yet with 16.5's. I run about 15-20 psi.
