I wanted to share my experience with DRC with the rest of you. I ordered some rims and tires for a 2005 Ram 2500 4x4 but with the catch that it was slightly lowered. I encountered many people telling me that 33" tires would rub and not fit. I called Jeremy at DRC and he led me in the right direction. The rims are Centerline Eight Balls with MT Baja ATZ tires. He shipped them to me mounted and balanced and the customer service was second to none. I am super happy with the service and product that he sold me. I have also delt with a few people before about the 5. 9 and he turned out to know his stuff. I thought he was just going to be another rim and suspension guy but I was very impressed. First impressions with the tires are they make a slight hum starting at around 60 MPH and ride is smooth at about 45 lbs of air. The rims hardly stick out of the fender and is forged for all the guys that want to carry massive amounts of weight. Disregard the fact that the truck says it has a HEMI and is a 1500. Sorry about the quality of the pictures, they were taken from a phone and let me know if you guys can see it.
 
The tires and wheels look great! Did you lower a 4x4, and then put 1500 hemi emblems on a 2500 cummins? What's the idea here?
 
Glad to here there still a good place and in business. i bought suspension from greg 2 years ago and had nothing but good things to say of DRC. Felt like i lost a friend when i read about Greg passing.
 
Sorry about the emblems guys, it is really a 5. 9 and has 8 lugs and has a CP3 and everything. I did that cause they love to break into these trucks around here and maybe I can get away with it for a while. I got broken into in front of my house with an alarm, but thanks to that I managed to get out of the house in time but they were gone. I had to put the jimmy jammer plate on the inside of the door and deleted the driver's side lock on the door handle. I know it looks wierd but it might save my truck, at least I hope, cause not everybody around here knows alot about these trucks cause people still ask why is my HEMI so loud? I did not know about Greg though, I am real sorry, I am going to have to call Jeremy and pay my respects. Sorry about the emblems, I figured you guys were going to laugh but if it will make you feel any better, I am planning on just debadging it, what do you guys think??
 
I almost forgot the original question: Yes, it is a 2500 4x4 that I lowered just a bit to fit into parking garages. It is really flat here in Miami, FL and there is really almost no need for lifted trucks unless you really like them. If I lived somewhere else, I would jack it up instead of lowering in a bit. It juat makes me less nervous when entering a garage.
 
If your worried about them stealing the truck, why don't you buy the Smarty with the Anti-Theft program in position 0. With that installed, you cant start it no matter how hard you try.

Just an idea.

That what I do to my truck when I have to go someplace new and strange. ;) Hmm come to think of it, I will be in Miami in another week for class and then be back in October for the whole month. Any good restaurants around the airport area???

The best I can think of I by Miracle Mile. There is a restaurant called Houston's there. The best filet I have had and great sushi too. Just a thought. If you want any more, just let me know. As far as the Smarty, I have no idea it could do that, I appreciate it. I just might have to check it out.
 
Yea that was an upgrade for my smarty that I down loaded. I like it, cause when I program it in, the truck will flat out not start and it can't be jumped or hot wired.



I will be down on Monday to Miami. Looking forward to some good Southern cooking. It's been about 30 years since I been down there. Happiness is good food. :)
