Love those trucks. Luxurious and powerful.
I prefer a more off road look on the wheels but different strokes for different folks.
Congrats!

I wouldn't think much if any. I put a set of 24x14 fuel mavericks on my h2 I'm building. They are both heavy as sh$t

That was going to be my next ?
are you going to do a CP3 conversion or just chance the stock CP4 with bigger tunes.
That is the only reason I didn't got back and by a LML when I sold my LMM
but if you only keep it 90 day you would care about that big of a repair bill LOL

Not going to run huge tunes, around 225hp. I'll port and plug the fuel rail with a fast, and keep my wot shifts from 4-5, 5-6 to a min lol

24's on a super lifted truck I just can't get into...looks disproportional. 20's or 22's would've looked better IMO. I have 22's on my Dodge Ram 2500 so I do like bigger wheels.

i would agree AJ on smaller tires, say 22s and 35s or 37s, but 40s i like the 24 and even the 26s

That truck is a beast, did you end up changing gear ratios in axles to accommodate for 40" tires to bring back to stock towing power and gas mileage?

Nice truck, but a new one every 90 days? That would be $1000+ a month in just sales tax

lol not every 90 days, just the summer months here in Oklahoma. this truck is nothing but a tow rig, and i only need it to pull my boat these few days. i get some pretty sick deals on my parts since its my personal truck, and the labor is free. i re coop all cost and usually turn a small profit when it sells.
