Looks awesome! I would also like to know how much they will affect the mpg and power. Oh and if they rub on a good bump...

I am going with the Rancho QuickLifts (maybe 2 inch lift in front). I have to order tires soon and these are on my short list.

Thanks,

Thanks....

When I say rub on a good bump, I also mean I have to be at full lock. Going straight or even a moderate turn I do not expect any rubbing. However, I dont know how you will do with only a 2" level. Weber27 just put a set on and has HBS 2 1/2 level and they rub slightly at full lock, the Auto Spring 2 1/2 provides just a little more lift (the spacer itself is ~1/16 tall which equates to more due to geometry). I suggest either going with a little smaller tire or a taller level. Will keep posted on MPG (my Gryphon should help with that too).

Kind of making me think twice on that size tire for my truck, do you think those in a terra grappler would clear a 2wd with 2 1/2 level? Really hope they will because they look bad A

how much room do you have on the upper control arm to the tire ?

i had 305/70/18 on my last truck and they almost touched the control arm and rubbed the frame

also is nitto the only one making that size?

I seriously doubt it.....even if you could get them on they would rub really bad.

Its fairly close, but I can get my fingers between tire and UCA/Upper ball joint, and no rubbing (if it is I have not felt or heard it). I think you can get BFG A/T KO's in this size. There may be a few others out there, but have not looked into them.

Thanks bud, really loving them. You are right, pictures do no justice. Just out of curiosity what air pressure are you running?
