They got dirty drivin' it home last night; I'll try to post some better pics when I get a chance. They are the new XD 797 Spys in 18x9. No lift; they just cranked the TBs a little.

Real nice!!:D

Those are some sharp wheels. First set of black wheels that really work for me. Good choice.

BTW - congrats!!:thumb:

Thanks! Some black wheels don't do it for me but when they have the right amount of aluminum to offset it......
Anyway I have this front bumper on order

and think the black wheels will look pretty sharp w/it. :cool:

What is the width, Backspacing, offset for those wheels? I think those come in a 9 and 8.5" width. Are those BFG's the 285/65R18's, I'm looking at 305/65R18's, so they did no trimming, just a little cranking? Any pics from the front showing how much they stick out from the front fenders. Nice truck by the way! Chris

Very nice setup. I've been looking for something similiar. I can't lift my truck because I tow an 5th wheel, but what you've got there just might work! Share all the details!

Guess we don't need no stinkin' lifted truck - these things look lifted from the factory just about.....

I'll try to find that out for you; I had the dealer get them for me as he gets me everything @ his cost. (I buy 10-12 trucks/year from him) I know they are from Wheel Pros. Here is a link to the wheels:
http://www.wheelpros.com/brands/index.php?id=5&pid=695&pg=4
(Note Mods: They don't sell to the public; only a distributor)

The BFGs are 285/65R18s and they had to trim some plastic from the front inner wheelwell. No rubbing at all. Here is a pic to show you how much they stick out:

No lift; just cranked the torsion bars.
Thanks!
