    x Only getting 275 X 32 tires, now I'm putting on my lift and I know I'm going to want bigger tires.... But for a stock truck and wheels they were the perfect size....

    X3 on this. If I want some kind of mud crawler I will get a beater truck of some sort to build it from. Not a 30 newer, high resale vehicle, put together by one of the world's premier car companies.

    Rear TSB helped with heavy loads in the bed, but that's about it. Glad I didn't pay for it.

    Wish I had gotten real coilover lift rather than billstein 5100 strut lift. It felt a smooth type of stiff at first when I installed it but now it is skull-rattling harsh.
