I have been wondering this for some time and if anyone knows im sure there on here. My truck came with eagle alloys on it front and rear. I noticed that the front wheels stick out further then the rears appear to, Im not sure if its an illusion or something but when i pulled the wheels to check the brakes there were no spacers or anything on there. Common?

All 3/4 and 1 tons in that body style have wider front ends than the rear, I wondered that too when I got my 97.

Chevy thing, they have done it since the 70's, claimed it helped turning radius. Use to be a company that made spacers to even them out, cant remember the name now though.
