Got my wheels and tires shipped the other day from Rimzone and put them on right away. I already had the bilstein 5100s (didn't take too many pictures of that installation) at each corner.

The wheels are 0mm offset and tires are 295/70/18. no rubbing. Really happy with the way it turned out. Tires have a bit more vibration than stock (as expected) and relatively quiet (luckily the exhaust sound drowns that out)

Some of these pics are from right after the wheels are installed, some of them are after I got around to a much needed cleaning. I tried out claybarring and waxed it. Took a good part of the day, but the shine really shows.

Next steps will be to keep removing the chrome pieces (antenna, paint exhaust, headlights/taillights) I'm probably going to try to make my own custom front and rear badges as the plastidip job i did on them is starting to come off slowly. (more info here http://www.ramforumz.com/showthread.php?t=82406)

anyway, what you all came for, a whole buttload of pics

Just wanted to thank everyone for all the information, as I'm one of those people that researches purchases for much longer than necessary before making a decision, and much of that research was done here.

Great looking truck, same color as mine. Are you planning on tinting tail lights? What about black housing head lights?

Looks really nice man. Sorry if this is a stupid question but how much smaller would those be to tires that are 35x12.50x18. I don't know how to convert or anything.

how far out do these stick? im looking at a -12 offset and trying to determine how far outset the fender they will sit.
if you have a pic to show that would be great.

here's the best picture i had taken of how far they stick out. If my math is correct, should be about 28mm more than stock. Not too much where it kicks too many rocks back and force me to get fender flares, but out far enough to look mean. let me know if you need more.

Thanks for the kind words

Awesome, thanks alot man. Your truck looks really good.
Think I'm gonna order up my rims today.

 

[smoothee]

Looks sweet! Not to hijack but do you think 305/70R18 would work with the same setup, with the only difference being a 1.25 body lift in addition?

 

[2012NightRider]

looks bad ass, love the grey.

 

[2010hemislt]

Damn that looks awesome! Ive got the same set up only Fuel Hostages and i love it! The tires are great. Nice choice in color of your truck as well lol

 

[nfd538]

This truck is leveled with Bilsteins does anyone know if it's set at 2.1 or 2.8"? I realize this thread is 1 1/2 years old but I was searching for XD misfits and found this. Love the stance on this dudes truck.

 

[Klawson111]

Would also like to know what they are set at. Looking to get the same set up on my truck soon!!

 

[garcia2389]

did you get a spacer for the rear, and is the front set at 2.8 to fit those tires? I want to get bilsteins front and back but was wondering if I use a 1" spacer in the rear if I will need longer shocks

 

[Gp1200r2000]

Shocks

What do u have your shocks set at,can you give me a complete run Dwn from tires to rims to back lift if any,thank and truck looks great
