here comes the question.
i am running lt235/85 size tires on my 16 inch 8 lug rims. what 6 lug rim will allow me to keep a fairly stock look and my tires?
where can i find em cheap?
thanks

For the most part 3/4 ton trucks have great brakes, the weakness is the master cylinder. I have done several power brake upgrades on these trucks. A booster and a dual master cylinder will do wonders, is more cost effective, and you won't have to run different wheels.
