    Thanks!! Can you post a head on or from the rear picture showing the stance? Hows the ride quality with the 5100's set to 2.5"?

    Yup...tires here are expensive and add taxes and $4.00/ tire for environmental fees and it adds up quickly.

    That makes sense then. I had the Faulken Wildpeaks at3 for about a 1,000 miles. Hated them. Don't know what the hype is about them, tread depth was low compared to most new tires, as well as skinny tread width and low load handling, I think a C. My truckwas squirrelly too. I replaced them with 285 75 KO2's from the 265 75 Faulken. Much happier. Hopefully you have better luck and I know everybody's needs and want are different. Just curious, what does the price come to in USD? Cheers!

    I think that is the first negative I have heard on these tires. I watched a lot of videos on YouTube and everything stated for all conditions including snow was positive. I had my truck out today after a snow storm and didn't have any issues. Never went out of 2 wheel drive. Too early to tell right now, I will save my opinion on the tires until I actually get some miles on them. Like you if I don't like them I will switch them out.

    I will say they were great in the snow! My friend has them on his Ram 3500 and they are a completely different tire, it's why I got them. The 285's might be better with better tread depth and width. I guess after having several sets of KO2's, they just didn't compare to what I used to.

    Sorry about the late follow up. I attached a picture from the front below.

    Ride at 2.5 is rougher than stock but not intolerable.

    Thanks, that's a nice setup! Your truck really looks good with 265/70's. What tires are you running?

    They get louder as they ware, I love them. I drove through an entire state covered in snow, sometimes it was deep snow. They got me through it with no problems. Here is a front view of them.
