Stock wheels on lifted trucks!

Magstar, do you have a straight on pic of your truck? I'm going to pull the trigger on wheel spacers and fender flares soon and curious how yours look straight on. With the 1.75", you didn't need to trim the studs correct?

I'll get some true straight on shots tomorrow. I had these on my phone.

I did not have to trim my wheel studs. The factory studs stick out 1.75" so to avoid trimming the original studs you'll need the 1.75" spacers, some of the OEM wheels have a pocket on the backside mating surface that will allow you to use 1.50" spacers I've heard but mine didn't have them.

Thanks!!! That looks perfect. I was thinking 1.75 may be too much but it looks just right!

That looks (.Y.)s

I think the 35s looks small on these 6inch lifts..... Maybe a 36 would sill it iut better?

Does anyone think I can do this with stock 22's that came with my 2015 Silverado High Country? The tires are all weather tires that look low pro-ish. I'd love to have bigger tires if possible but didn't know because of the size of the rim. Thanks.

You can use the 22" rim with a 35x12.5 R 22 if you install a suspension lift (eg. 6" lift kit). Would just be a lower profile tire than what I run on my 20"s. Bigger the rim the more those jokers are gonna cost, but I'm sure you already know that. I say hurry up and get it all installed so we can see pics!
