Very nice. Looks a tad high in the back, but if you're changed the rear leafs it should drop a little over time.

Yeah, on a 2nd Gen I would have gone with 18s (they're closer to stock height). Maybe when you wear them out, you can upgrade to 285s. Might not fit the front, but if the backspacing is correct they should fit the rear.

How are ya gonna get 315's on those 9" wide year one rims? If I remember right the 315 tires are about 11" from bead to bead, and I think the recommended minimum wheel width is 10".
