There's a considerable difference in the width (kind of hard to tell in a picture, tried to find pictures at same angle)....I was thinking the same thing but it's easily fixed with backspacing (if you plan to get new wheels) Here's a picture of my truck Pre-ECE Lowering and After...Im very happy with mine!





So much as my buddy saying that wasnt the original rearend for this truck and it had to of been changed my previous owner....lol....Hopefully this helps a bit...
