A guy in my club had the first dodge in the country to lay full frame on 26" wheels, and the tires looked like electrical tape wrapped around them. ![BowROFL](http://www.the370z.com/images/smilies/bowrofl.gif) However, this truck rode as good or even better than stock, depending on the psi he was riding at.
Sorry for getting off topic...lol
