    Welcome to TW!

    Bigger tars. Need to fill those wheel wells with that lift. Conversely, examine that lift and deliberate upgrades there.

    Well I’m quite embarrassed to admit that I’m not sure of the exact specifications of the truck, but I do believe I have a 3” lift
    I’m very new to this as y’all can tell

    I’m looking maybe to get new wheels and was looking for recommendations, as well as maybe some small aesthetic changes such as lights (interior or exterior) just some ideas :)
