    ah, yeah, I was reading more about it as you wrote your reply...100% agreed...no, that's incorrect...1000% agreed.

    ps, love the look of your truck. What suspension kit did you go with?

    I did extensive research too, I just purchased the Rancho 2.5" lift RS66901R9. Not too expensive and very easy to install. Look into it, might be another option for you.

    @Mademan925 - hey man, I'm debating on installing 33's or 35's on my 2010. I just recently installed a 3" toytec lift (bilstein w/ eibach lift coils) and I plan on doing the CMC prior to the wheels. Is there any more trimming I'd need (I've only seen people say, you'll need to do some trimming)? Also, did you regear, is it necessary with wheels that size?

    You will have to remove the fender liners and flares, trim the fenders, fold the pinch weld and you will still rub on bumps. I highly recommend regearing. Its my next mod going 4.56. Your truck will be very slow without and it wont be good for your transmission. But dam 35s look good.

    Thanks for the reply. Yeah, dem 35s look great! I'll probably save that for later on down the road then and go with 33's for now, given the finances and since this is still my DD (wife would kill me if I go to crazy too soon). Your truck looks sick man, subbed your build page a bit ago and noticed some of the youtube vids you have posted there are already ones I frequently view, especially the one at Slick Rock!
