The trans has roughly 15k miles on it and was built by...

    decided to switch rim's again, these are the option's i've narrowed it to.

    I decided that i want 20x12's on my truck and am either going with 38x15.50 or 37x13.50 tire's. Keep in mind it is on 37x12.50 with 17 inch wheel's now. These are the wheel's i've narrowed it down to. I'm really leaning toward's the xd diesel's.
