1991 v3500 - big dumb lifted forever truck

Cappy no grabby nubby.

I usually do this thing where I snap the cap on and give it a good try at rotating it. If it doesn’t rotate, it means it’s got a good bite onto the wheel. But this time I guess not. Even with it seeming snug, it flew off. Tragedy is the right word.
 
Nah it just happened to work out. Last time I went wheelin was October of 23. I’m averaging a trip once every three years.
 
After several months overdue from US wheel they finally arrived. Got all four mounted up today on the handy dandy tire machine. Patent pending!

I should have everything now to follow through except time and fair weather. It’s sauna season.

Oh man, wide white steelies wrapped up with some big ole TSL’s and topped off with true K-30 GMC caps - for some reason my drawers just got tighter…
 
Huba huba.

Are those 14” wide wheels? And 17’s. Those are going to look awesome on there. Dont recall, what lift setup did you go with?

Have you ordered the truck nuts yet?

Believe it or don’t, they are 10s with 3.75” backspace. They look sick while keeping the tire shape I like.

No thanks lmao I have been to NY state and I am a desert lizard. I do not belong there.
 
Final decision on the amount of lift?

Please, PLEASE don’t cut it.

8” springs and a 1” zero rate. Already have a 1” bl.
So an effective 10. I do already have some secret trimming so that might help.

I really don’t know where this will end up but I think I’ll be ok.

Nice . . I have a 8" BDS and 1" zero rate for my 1 K30 and 3" body lift . Cant wait for some 40" tires for it .
