there dick cepeck wheels. i was looking into those eagles but friend of mine is alread getting a set for his truck wich is almost exactly like my truck and trying to make them look different from each other. the rims look better with a tire mounted on it. cant find a picture of them mounted on a truck though.

and i also plan on putting a 3 inch body lift in my truck but dont know how goofy 32s would look with a 3 inch lift. i see 33s with a 3inch lift and they looked stuffed in there i like the look where theres a little space between the tire and the fender. this aint gonna be a mudder or anything either its just for looks. i got 2 other trucks i use for offroading.

i think i got a 3 on mine in the front...but im not positive.
and yea i think that sound like a tight fit but it also depends on the tire...

my friend has 33s with a 3inch body and his t bars cranked and they still rub. 32s should be good. Not to be a D*** but Chevy's don't look real good with body lifts. You can see too much frame.

im not sure about black rims they do look good on some trucks but i dont know how that will look on my truck. i got the chrome strips along the bottom planning on getting some chrome nerf bars. and trying to find a light bar to mount on the front. and i just recently installed stainless steel bed caps. i did have an old stock steel wheel on the back once cause i screwed one of the rims up looked alright when i had the black roll bar in the back. but i sold that.

285/75's measure out to almost 33 inches and the only problem i have in the woods is at full lock it'll grab the mudflaps and the front valance. how many times are you in full lock on the highway though......
