19.5's make sense on a small truck. If you need 22.5's, you probably need the rest of a big truck too.

Carrboy, go to www.ricksontruck.com and click on customers trucks section to get a better look at the rear anges/width using 19.5s. and then go to www.duallyusa.com to look at the 22.5s.

That looks awesome....that'll be my project this fall. But I plan on adding a 4 inch lift! :D Are those 22.5's? What brand? Adapters or direct bolt on?

It's the whole kit with adapters and 22.5"

Micker,

after cranking up the torsion bars, make sure you get the truck re-aligned. Raising the torsion bars changes the camber angles.

Thanks, I noticed the wandering front end!!

Not a problem. They do stick out about an inch, but I like to wach them bounce around over bumps, and it looks tough!!

Here is the rear shot. It sticks out a bit, but I like it!!! I think I am going to lift the truck a few more inches to get the wheels out of the wheel wells.

Thanks!! I am waiting ot the lift kit before I align the truck, It's a little drifty. I love the way it looks, and I gained 500rpm at 80mph!!

With a taller tire, you should have lost rpms.. and if you dropped 500 rpms, you had some damned short tires on the truck from the factory.
Hows the vibration/braking ability?
As long as your happy, glad it worked out for you..
