Looking to get an idea on what to do with my LV if/when I ever get to that stage in the (re)build. Mine is currently on 33x10.50 BFG MTs (on widened stock wheels) that I bought right after I got the truck thinking that was where I wanted to be. The height of the truck is ok but the rear tires would not work on the road... they are just about hitting the quarter as it sits. I don't know what springs are on it, maybe even the original stock springs...

I'm looking to see how things look with everything from stock height springs up to 2/3" lifts... I'm not going larger than about 33" tires - I'd LIKE to stick with hubcap wheels (read: 15" I guess, unless I get something really custom made). It will be a street/dirt road truck, not a rock crawler, no spring overs or anything like that)

Here it is now:

I had them made. Stock inners welded to new 8" wide outers. Cost about $100 each done locally here on Long Island, NY (I had the stock rims already)
 
Swampers make anything look good! But I agree, nice look...
 
What's the name of the company? I need the opposite done to my FJ25 wheels that a PO widened.

I'll see if I can find that info....
 
that was mine, pic is in my yard ;)

it had crazy custom spring packs, still under the axle, no body lift, all in the springs and shackles, tires were 36(maybe 38) Gumbo(or Buckshot) Mudders I think...
