need help with my 620

[tmac1991]

I have found a great set of rims tht I really like. Problem is tht the back rims stick out bout 2" or 3". I love the rims just wondering how hard it would b to flare the bed to fit the rims and if it would look rite if I did. Thanks for your help.

these are the rims

Never fall in love with rims or high maintenance girlfriend without testing the fit. Know your pay grade and stay within it. Love your truck first, rims?... meh!

The rims where free and in person they look good.

They look good, but are they worth cutting the truck to make fit? 

Don't get me wrong, I loveeee wide wheels. I had so many sets for my 620. But they were a bitch to fit right

make up ur mind which direction u want to go higher or lower --I can widen ur wheel wells but it is to much trouble to make them original again

[tmac1991]

Well I could keep it the height it is now and have tht kinda gasser look, kinda wanting something clean looking.

Higher you can run anything, but it throws dirt all over the body. Medium or lower you have to have the tires inside the fenders or risk the body rubbing a groove in the tread.  I believe cutting the body is a sin.. a mutilation rather. Once done it says you took the easy way out and it's hard to put back. Try finding those rims with the proper off set so they fit.

so i think your first choice has to be what look are you going for. I would suggest looking at and reading as many builds as you can , this should give you a pretty good idea of the labor and cash it will take for you to get there .

trial and error can get costly quick, for examle : I started out with 6 lug to five lug adaptors and wanted to get away from the adaptors but keep all the width. I ended up buying 3 different sets of wheels before finding the right set up for me . 1500 later i am happy , and i was only trying to find wheels to fit my build . you are starting with a truck that almost appears stock, and could be almost any style you are willing to put the work in to build . useing free or almost free parts is a datto life style ( and a good one ) just dont let that create tons of work for yourself in the long run.
