    Loving the truck, man... Pretty much the build I want.... simply but efficient - lift, tires, sliders, bed rack and rtt. And I may do a SSO slimline in time. But I am debating on 265/75/16s or going 255-85-16. Help me decide.. whats your ride like and MPG?

    Sorry I didnt get back to you sooner.

    My ride is good. Not bad imo.
    For me, 255 85 is the only 33 inch tire size I'll buy, and if I going larger than stock, it wont be for 1 inch. If I have to cut, itll be for 35s. My mpg with the tent and everything is around 17 on a bad day, and 21 on a perfect one.

    same shit as everyone else
    Are you running spacers with your wheels? I have the same lift and I think I’m going to run the same tires on my OEM wheels. How’s it drive?

    I'm not running any spacers with my factory wheels. I like how this tires ride. Even though its taller, the tire is "agile" feeling. I didn't do any trimming, or anything like that. I keep my tires PSI around 35 so they are pretty soft for an e rated tire.

    yeah man, np. Look around for deals, and id recommend buying 5, so if you get a flat you wont be stuck without a tire. very few stores carry these without ordering, that's what I did
