I get to play the waiting game right now, seems there's a national backorder on the 295s. Jon at DriversInc.com quoted me the best price, just waiting to hear back from him on how long it'll take to get them.

I used to have a Dodge Ram 2500 w/ a Cummins that I did some work to and I loved doing that to some of these little Hondas. Keep up the work man, the truck looks cool as hell. Those wheels will look awesome on there too. Make sure to post up some pics.

Eventually I will tub it and stuff some 345 Nitto Invos in the back, but that's gonna be way down the road. I had been seriously leaning towards an LS3 or 6.0, but lately I've been thinking that an aluminum block 5.3 with a turbo or 2 would be fun and different.

Do you post on performancetrucks.net at all? Those guys would love your build as well!

Thanks! Yep, I'm on there with the same name, but I don't post very often. I'm on several truck forums under this name, just lurking and trying to gain all the info I can. I'm definitely relieved to see all the LS swaps on the CK trucks, glad to know the info is all out there so I'm not flying blind when I get ready to swap my engine.
I decided to toss the new wheels on while I had it up in the air...

I forgot to snap pics of the fronts, but the wheels didn't rub anything at all. I might have some slight rubbing issues once the tires are on, but I think I'll be alright. And the rears will tuck up more on the ground, I didn't have it sitting level so the weight was all up front. Right now it's got 275/35/18s in the back, and the tops of the tires are almost tucked, so 295/40/20s should be up in the wheel wells...
