Nice, wait until she starts pressing buttons!

I did not go back through all of the pages, but is that a full size or close to full size spare under the carpet cover? I am trying to figure out where to put a spare on mine, besides the roof rack.

Yeah, that is a fullsize 235/75R16 under the tire cover. It fits in the spare tire storage well pretty tight but it fits.

Larry this thing looks so good no matter what is on it... I love it man. We got some really good ice down here recently and my daughter and I got my truck out, it was a blast.

Off topic hows your kiddo? Does she like riding in the trucks yet?

Thanks! Yeah, I saw North TX got whacked pretty good with that ice storm. I saw your pictures but I was using my phone so I wasn’t able to comment until I got on with the computer. I really dig the Canyonero emblem

The baby is doing great! Hard to believe she is almost 6 months old already. Nah, she hasn’t ridden in any of the play trucks yet. The Impala and Silverado are her taxis. LOL

I love the Steelies with the dog dish caps. That's the route I'm going with mine.

I've got steel wheels on my 89 v2500. I like the look of the super swamper tire size. However i don't want to lift mine. Any idea what tire size i could put on the stock steelies to get as close to that look as possible?

When trying to stuff large tires under a vehicle without lifting it much or at all, an option can be to cut & trim some sheet metal around the fenders and then install larger fender flares e.g. from Bushwacker et al. But doing that depends on condition of existing sheet metal, desire to stay pure with original sheet metal / stock looking, one's level of comfort, etc.
