          They're Denali 17"s. I think 8" wide? They came on last generation Denali SUV's. When using GM wheels on Hardbodies you have to bore the centers out to fit but luckily the friend that I got these from had already done that.

          I'll check the specs on those when I get back from my vacation this week.

              Haha that's actually masking tape. My friend put it there and I didn't notice it until we got to that spot

              It will come off when I need gas again lol

                Specs on the wheels are 17 x 7.5

                I'll check the offset when I take them off again.

                I need to go lower. You can see the crossmember back there where I have shaved a few roads.

                    I know I am in the wrong forum for this opinion...but...pickups need to be high. Really high, not low.

                    Like these fellows:

                          It just looks dumb because of this toy wheel position. Some spacers, wider wheels and pulled fenders and they are tits!

                          Well at least thats my opinion:



                          It needs some lights on top on a bar to be epic but this shows what I am feeling:

                            Meh. If I was interested in off-roading or looking bigger or something I would have just gotten a 4wd hardbody. But that's just not what I'm into

                                So I made a grounding kit from the one that I had left-over from my Subaru and wow - what a difference it made. Idle is smoother, improved throttle response, and a very decent increase in mid-top end power. I am very please with this mod as it took about 20min and was well worth installing.
