X-mas Gift to myself, finally got my 20's on!
These are Dodge 03/05 20" polished aluminum wheels with Mastercraft 285/50/20 HTR plus tires. I had some custom center caps milled to accommodate the bearing cap. Now that this is done I'll get the rear disc brake conversion going. Here's a picture.

Pimpin isn't as hard as you think.
The profile of the tire isn't as low as you think. The rid isn't any different than before. The truck does happen to handle better on curves/turns and the tires no longer chirp like the old stock ones did. A big plus with me. The tires foot print in much wider, so I guess that's why. An other big plus is that I can't hear the tires on the road anymore. That was one of the features of this particular tire. This turned into a big and drug out project. From finding out I had to have my brother mill some custome center caps to finding out how much the tires would cost me. There was too much time and money to quit. Now that they are on I can say I'm more than happy with the result. |

Looks pretty good; I guess the new 20's fit on the older models. What wheels did you have on previously?

Previously I had those stock chrome 16's from the factory with those big plactic chrome caps. So it really makes a big difference to me. |

No just a few more things: paint your upper bumper cover and lower air dam the same as the truck, clear corner lenses, billet grill, toneau cover, and slam that thing to the ground. Other than that they look awesome.

BTW your indy truck looks sweet. If I had the $ for a new one I'd go that direction, but you might want to add some clear corners and some new mirrors to her. Thats if the after market has made them yet. |
