Most of you probably saw the pics already from the old board (are we not supposed to mention that name?). I finally started moving pictures into a photo album to hopefully make it easier to view my pics. The album is arranged in chronological order starting with the bone stock truck. Last two pics show the wheels and tires. The pics with thumbnails have very large pics if you click on them.
photo album (http://photos.yahoo.com/bc/breitensteini/lst?.dir=/2001+Dodge+Ram&.src=ph&.order=&.view=t&.done=http%3a//photos.yahoo.com/bc/breitensteini/lst%3f%26.dir=/2001%2bDodge%2bRam%26.src=ph%26.view=t)
I'll be taking a few shots of the front after the 'sport style' painted grill and bumper go on (hopefully soemtime this month).
BTW:
Let me know if the photo album isn't working or is a pain in the rear. Anyone have a free pic hosting site that is easier/better?

All I'm getting is: "You have reached a restricted area.":confused: Those things never work for me either.:(

Very sharp! It's amazing how a mild drop with some nice custom wheels will do for a Ram. What is the backspacing on the wheels, and what is the tire size, if you don't mind me asking?

Thanks for the compliments everyone.
Red Dak, yes they are Lightning Replicas. I loved those wheels since I first saw a Lightning.
Ramrod, they are 20 x 9 with +12mm offset. The tires are 275/45R20 Goodyear Eagle GTII.
Ram Man, I don't think geocities lets a picture be opened by another site?
I don't know why its not working for you Ram360? Sorry. Try searching geocities for breitensteini.

Thanks for the info, jwv3. I might retire the SS/T wheels for a while and I was thinking about some 20's. Maybe like a Torque Thrust II like blubyu has on his truck. Very sharp!

Yeah, bluebyu has a very nice looking setup. He has more backspacing because his is dropped a lot more than mine. I think his tires are actually tucking inside the federwell lip at full suspension travel.
Be sure to plan what overall drop you want to end up with before thinking about what wheel size/offset to get.
Personally, I love the medium drop, sporty/performance stance (I'm pretty happy with the way mine turned out). I like the air bagged, pavement scrapers too, but I don't want it for a daily driver.
