Pictures of trucks with 6inches of lift with or without 3in body please

Hey guys, I want to lift my truck soon and I am thinking 6 inches is the way to go. Can you guys supply me with some pics of your trucks to really convince me? Please include tire/rim info as well.

Thanks!

google your truck + 6" lift and you'll get a lot of images, food for thought.

6" suspension, 3" body, and some mud to make it sexy.

The biggest problem I'm finding right now is that in the late 80s and early 90s, when these trucks were popular to lift, the trend was big, wide tires. They still make big tires, but they're not nearly as wide anymore. It wasn't uncommon to see 35-40in. tires to be 16-18 inches wide, on 14-inch wide rims. But now, you just can't find them. The only truly wide tire I can find in 38-40in. is the Interco Bogger, which I hate.
