Well, the pic may be small but I do have high res ones as well.

looks good....what size are those shoes?

I think in that pic I had the 275-60-15 out back with the tiny 225-50-15 up front. I have changed front tires to 225-60-15 and they look/fit much better. The rims are 15x8 with a -11mm offset. I am hoping to get new rims before winter hits or early next spring. I am going with Weld ProStars with a 15x7 (4.5'' backspacing) up front and a 15x10 (6.5'' of backspacing) out back. I will be keeping my current tires til they wear out and the current fronts look good so that size will remian no matter what. I want to go wider and taller in the rear though, the 4.10's really tach up quick with a 28'' tall tire.

=====================================================
I'm runnin 3.73's with 275/60-15's in back on 8" wheels due to not bein able to find 295/60's or 315/50's in anythin but a drag radial..

I've seen a truck on a car lot here that has 315/70-15's that's a huge tire, 32" tall and WIDE, but can't find them anywhere either..........I've called all the tire suppliers around here to no avail...

Yeah, getting up in that size range seems to mean a drag radial any more. Doesn't really bother me though, I'll go with one of the street legal ones. I don't drive my truck as much as I use to any more so they should last for several years. I'll need the grip anyway once the motor is in.

I do remember running I belive a 275-70-15 when I had my first Ranger. That tire was HUGE. I am sure I would be unhappy with the sidewall flex it had now.

Heres a few from Monday. I didn't realize how old that last pic was, 2005.

Here is an old school shot of my truck. First time taking a night shot, this was back in April of 99.
