I agree, that would've been foolish!

Out here, every fancy nancy wants wheels like those on his truck, you could make a nice buck on them!

LOL

Aww I don't know they aren't that bad...Are yah a young guy? Then they probably fit yah...They are a bit blingy but they are kinda tough looking too...Kinda make the truck stand out! Either way great find and great price! ;Sweet

Im 28 but feel like I'm 40. I'm eventually gonna change em cause one tire is like $375. Other than the wheels I really like the truck just got plenty of little things that still need atttention.

It would seem foolish to me to pass on an 94 idi f350 crew cab 4x4 because the wheels are too fancy. There is a junk yard close by and im sure they would be more than willing to trade me a $80 set of old steelies for these wheels. I bought the truck and the wheels just happened to be on there. If i tried im sure i could trade to a smaller diameter wheel and come out ahead. Honestly they are not my favorite either. But they do fit all 8 on 6.5 trucks as long as they have enough lift.

I like em...and I'd GLADLY trade you my 16" steelies for em, AND pay the shipping!

id really like to have some black DC-1 in 16" with 35 or bigger tires. these tires are 35 x13.5 r20. there is a ton of tread left so ill run em for now til the right deal comes along. Oh and yes they do ride rough.

That really is a nice truck! Too bad you had to take those POS wheels with it.

I think 37 is stretching it a little on some hummer tires. I also had a ramcharger before with a 3 inch lift and 33" tires. When i wheeled it i crushed a fender. So i added four more inches of lift. Here is a pic of it. You are right, running down the road you could probably fit em fine. Just stay on the road unless you have trimmed out the fenders. As for opusd2 I have alot of those same custom dents fortunately most people don't notice because of the POS wheels. After thinking about it id rather keep these POS wheels than run the steelies you run. I dont love em just gotta live with em. Most people i run into seem to like em. Oh and here is a pic of my last ruck the one I ran until the oil boom crashed.

i've had it on the trail a few times, not flexed alot, but even a little bit of flex the tires come off the ground, the suspension doesn't move much on a 4/3-1 ton truck! haha LOL

not from the factory they don't, guess you"ve never had aftermarket lift springs. Am i reading that right its a 2wd? if so id love to see a pic of the clearance on the front. I'm sure the back is fine with a flatbed. I owned a smilar truck a few months ago except with a 460 gas. It had 265s on it and feeled the wheel well up nicely not much room left. Please post a pic of that clearance if it looks like plenty of room I will eat my words. If you don't I can't believe they could fit without a lift of some sort.
