woohoo! got my first wheel to check fit! not only does it look really good i think, but it should also fit really well to help me narrow the truck. the tire behind the wheel is the size i'm using, so it's a really a good representative picture. only difference is it's sitting at about 15" and normal height will be 6".

brake clearance is great to the massive 1-ton calipers, this would have never happened with steel wheels. the ONLY clearance issue is with the LCA, and only on one side. the LCA lip rolls out and is really thick there, so with a simple welded-in stiffening rib to the bottom side, i can simply clearance what i need. my goal is 45deg of steering thru the full travel. that might get limited by fender clearance, we'll see how that goes.
