    well the rims will be heavier so your braking my suffer a little bit and there is more mass now that the motor has to spin. however i doubt the changes will be that bad or very much noticeable. Also try to get tires as close to the stock size height as possible so your gear ratios stay about the same

    i agree your truck being a v6 may suffer but not to the extent that you will notice. i have a 95 and although it has the v8 there was really no difference when i put the 22s on it. if you want go look at my pictures and if you like the rims they are for sale. Good Luck.
