Hi- ho trucksters

This is what I put under my 97 dak club cab.
16x8 optima type 96,s (2400 lb cap. 3 spokes) with 245/55vr16s, Cooper Futura
GLX
undirectional. they work/clear/perform excellently....they have raised my
effective
rear axle ratio from 3.55 to 3.73 or so...speedo reads 8% faster than you're
going...I
personally drive via the tach. All up price was $960
I put in Bilstein high pressure gas shocks to seal-the-deal. Cornering
estimate about
.8g plus.
last note...these are for "summer" use...you'll kill yourself if you try these
in inclement weather...I live in Scottsdale AZ...so be warned.
Hal
