G'day gents,
I came across this truck on ebay one day and fell in love. Unfortunately the posting has been deleted long ago along with any information about the wheel/tire size, offset, lift height and all that jazz.

I know the wheels are Moto Metal 951's I dont know the size

any guesses on what to do to make my truck sit like that would be awesome, I only plan on doing a cognito 4"-6" kit (I know its not as high!) with toyo m/t's as WIDE as possible

thanks for your thoughts & comments

those are 20"s ans 35's with either cognito,bds non torsion bar drop or another brand lift with realift torsion bar relocators. And 35/12.50/nitto mud grapplers.

Beautiful

I want to go with a -12 offset so that there is some nice lip, is this going to make the tires stick out and sandblast my doors? I hate chev's with the wheels out too far

any advice on how wide I can go with a 4" min lift? 12.5 x 33?

The one in the OP's pics looks like the wheels have little back spacing as well. Looks like it's a bumper-rubber whenever it turns, and combined with those tires, I bet it keeps the driver awake.:D

It is a BDS NTBD lift for sure. that dealer installs them on most of their lifted chevy/gmc trucks.

that truck is way too pretty to have had that lift long. wont take much driving and you will have lots of nice rock chips from those tires throwing stuff up. also, if you get into any mud or other crap it will be thrown all over the side of your truck and your windows. if that happens dont roll your windows down...will scratch the windows and you will wear out the window motor. there are lots of consequences to running tires that stick out that far. those tires will be very loud as well. i have seen alot of socal bro type guys running that kind of setup. their trucks never go offroad and winters are moderate so they can do it...but its a waste of a nice truck.
