Thanks, I like what you have done with the front of your truck (hood, grille, and the 4wd lower valence). Time for some wheels and tires and maybe a lift.

They are great tires, I have about 23,000 miles on them and still alot of tread. Very little road noise. I only wish that the side walls looked a little more aggressive like the Mickey Thompson ATZ's or the Pro-Comp Extreme all-terrains.

thanks man. I actually just bought a 6" rcd lift for it and am waiting to put it on till i get tires to fit it, then gears to compensate for the bigger tires. I wanna do everything right so it might take a little while.

What size tires and gears are you wanting to get? I'm wanting to get the RCD lift with new 20x10 wheels with 35's. Not sure what size gears yet, thinking about 4.10. All we need is time and money!

Well I was thinking about just going with some 33's (I'm 2wd, so won't be as high as a 4wd w/rcd lift), but have changed my mind to getting some 35s (315/70/17). I found some used BFGs on CL for $200 and they have quite a bit of life left, so I may be going to pick those up sometime this week. I've been told 4.56s should put me close to stock on the gearing, so that's what I'm looking at getting.

thanks for the compliment! I'll be able to clear 35s with my 6" lift. I already bought it, just haven't put it on yet.
