Dad just got some R/T wheels to replace the 16" stockers. I think they looks nice....

Damn, is that thing lifted or is that stock height?? Looks good though!

Stock suspension, lol. Just looks tall cause we're used to looking at Neons...

Fun truck to drive, 4.7 V8, 5 speed. It's going to get a Kenne Bell supercharger sometime, as well as a LSD.

Pretty sweet man, my brother has a new dakota and bought some srt-10 wheels, it looks pretty sick.

Something doesn't look right, I think the tires are too big.

if its a 2wd, it needs a mild drop. nice truck though man!

Too big?? They're too small...they're the right height, but too narrow. The sidewalls round in a bit too much.

It's 4wd. I think it would look nice just a bit lower, but it does get taken offroad on a fairly regular basis (fields and such for doing good ole Missouir farm work) so a drop isn't practical. And it gets driven on the highway alot too, so he uses a tight on-road tread pattern tire, because on-road comfort and handling outweigh mud traction. We try to stay out of the mud...

I'll take a picture of my dad's sweet '86 Ram when we get it out and clean it up this spring. It needs some TLC, but when it's clean it looks killer.

nice man, for a 4wd truck, thats a good stance. plus you dont want thin wall tire on a 4wd truck. takes the fun out of all.

Cabbs · Post by **Cabbs** » Sat Mar 17, 2007 9:27 pm

If it does go offroad regularly, then I wouldn't worry about it. It's just that\ the sidewalls are too tall for my tastes.

I had those wheels also. I was running 245/50/17 in front and 285/45/17 in rear.

HOly cow that is some paint. Not my style at all, but nice for what it is. That rear took alot of work by the looks of it...

SlvrACR · Post by **SlvrACR** » Sat Mar 17, 2007 9:43 pm

Ya that paint was cool 5 years ago lol thats why we sold it. It was sweet then but everyone got it. It was the 12 color my girl picked it out and she also picked all the mods done to it. It was a DJM drop. You should look into it. Its a nice kit and didnt ride bad at all

You're stretching the tires!! JDM drift style y0!

Anyways, the wheels do look good. Sidewalls look good, too. Anything less and it would look funny. *thumbs up*

I have no clue lol and I don't have anymore pics

. It is more than likely a Japanese car. I get a lot of pix from clubroadster.net. I have a few of crazy cars with waaaay stretched tires. I plan on running 15x8 +0 with either a 195/50/15 or a 205/50/15 on my Miata. Drift-tastic!
