I didn't feel like working yet and I really wanted to see what my truck would look like with the "new" rims on it.... so I tried on the new shoes. I freaked out at first because without rubber on the rims it looked like they were going to hit the bedsides, but with a tape measure and level I determined there is a full 2" between the rim and bed

The rims look small, but they are 15x8's and they are going to get 235/75/R15 tires.

I know you shouldn't leave a truck set on a jack, but I was far away from it and with no fender on to whack me in the head, I felt safe
