shouldn't be too hard to do youre truck like that get some adapters and stock 22,5 inch wheels and trucktires and get unbelievable amount of miles out of them
the 4x4's are pretty high from the factorie but i think those tires will fit straight on .

ever considered supersingles?

The thing I don't really like about those trucks are how far the back wheels stick out, other than that they look pretty good, just not my cup of tea.

i couldn't find any pictures of raised obs 88-98 gmc/chevy duallies like my 94 extended cab with 22.5's.

those pictures that i posted are just to show the look that i'm going for.

22.5's with semi 255/70/22.5 tires are approximately 36" tall.

i seen a 94 non dually 4x4 with 36" tires and only a 1.25" lift (the individual just cranked the torsion bar and did nothing to the rear) and the tires cleared fine with some trimming of the front bumper and valiance.

...and added a body lift, but why get hung up on technicalities?

I don't see the gap in the back. And it doesn't look that high on the frame. But we did that(cranked torsions and 3"blocks in the rear) to my brothers truck(same year and everything) and there is no way 36" would clear. And it rides terrible.

according to the owner of this truck, he clearly stated he just cranked the torsion bars 1.25" and trimmed the bumper.

no body lift.

the owner of this nice black truck just added a 3" body lift and no suspension mods.

the tires are just a tad bit smalller at 35" mounted on 20's.

no trimming to the bumpers or fenders.

i don't think this black truck or the white one exemplifies "red neck" but tastfully done right.

backspacing means a lot when trying to fit a tire/rim combination different from factory specs. thats why some rub or don't clear at all compared to these 2 trucks that clear with minium trimming.

I hate to be the voice of dissention, but yes, there is a body lift on that truck.

6 lugs means it's a 1/2 ton 4X. No way a 1/2 ton sits like that. Maybe a 3/4 ton, but not a 1/2 ton.
