why does it have 33" tires under a lift that tall?

 

[Jff24Gordn]

hey i want to put 6" of lift in my truck and keep stock tires, too. it just looks so cool.

 

[Swayse]

tires

I hope he was on his way to the tire shop to get his meats mounted. Do they make big tires for 20" wheels? Even a 35" tire would look small on that thing.

A friend just e-mailed me this truck today. I know nothing about it but it is BIG.....

I believe this is the same truck that is as the top of the forum, except now it has 38" tires. (see next thread)

 

[scarlton]

Here it is

 

[Vaughn MacKenzie]

Could very well be scarlton! That truck needed some REAL tires VERY badly I found that picture when surfing www.sporttruckingstore.com



Where did you find your picture?

It still looks goofy.



People who don't understand proportions when they do a lift and tires are a pet peeve of mine.

Hey Guys,

This truck was at last years SEMA show . It is a promotional truck for a lift kit put out by some co( cant remember who) This truck was /is the downfall of my 01. It was the first lifted 02 1500 that i had seen at the time. I thought it was too much then and i still feel the same now. What it did show was the potential of the new rams. They have the potential to look awsome lifted, and when i got back to my 01 in the parking lot, i could see she was crying a little bit as we both new it was the beginning of her demise



I can only hope my 03 (when i can get one) doesn't have to experience the same pain



Does it ever end??????????????????



DD

soon to be an 03 guy

IFS???

Do the 03's have IFS??? I looked under a few a while back... didn't remember it... Looks like a GM front end... except with coils.

 

[scarlton]

the 1500's are IFS. The 2500 and 3500 are straight axle still which in my opinion is much better, simpler, and tougher.

 

[Hammerhead]

Re: IFS vs. solid front axle

Yeah what he said only meaner

My experience with IFS was one long dance with part replacement and constant re-alignment



Of course, that was on a bow-tie and what else can you expect

 

[BHaner]

Good. I wouldn't have it any other way! From the pictures above it looked somewhat like a lift kit for a GM with IFS. Sudenly I thought... oh crap, they didn't I hated my 90 GMC 3/4 ton with IFS, worst 4x4 I ever had.
