Thumbs up Rollin' on DUBS now. HAHA

I've purchased my first two sets of 20" wheels, ever. Does that make me any less redneck?

Here is my new 06 Ram 4x4 diesel, I got rid of the black dually. The wheels on the truck are KMC "Backseat" in chrome 20x9, with 305/55/20 Nittos. Truck is factory height, no lift or cutting required for these 33" tires.







Up next is Lisa's '06 Mustang GT. Her wheels are Axis GT-R in 20x9.5 front, 20x10.5 rear. 255 Nittos up front, 285 Nittos on the rear. Silver spokes with machined lips.







Two red vehicles on twaintees. I'm feeling thuggish for some reason...

Tony

Well, to each his own I suppose. Thats what is good about choices

They were originally on a concept car, before the new Mustang was released. Here are pics of the original:

35's won't fit on a stock height 2500. These 33's already rub slightly at full turns up front. I ordered everything thru Discount Tire since they are a site sponsor

Good choice with the 20s. It's a bigger wheel, so it looks nice but it is also small enough (on that truck) to keep the tires looking enormous and keeps the truck looking stout. Nice purchase.
