    looking at a pelfreybilt aluminum front bumper without hoops and a warn vr10-s. My question is. My truck is only leveled with 265/75/16 tires. Will this bumper be over bearing from a look standpoint. I don't want something super large on the front. Want to keep it low profile. Any advice on another bumper or set up would be appreciated also if u think my idea would be just to much on my truck. Thanks IMG_3402.jpg

    I guess I'm different I haven't worried about the bumper for looks but I do think it looks good. This is an SOS front bumper even with full hoops I still don't think it looks bulky they are fairly streemlined

    Aluminum. I got it when I had the other truck with a 4 cyl in it so was keeping things light.

    Are you wanting the bumper because it offers protection, or merely as a place to mount a winch?
