    Got the lift installed but I am leaving my stock tires on for now. Was worried it would look strange but I think I can live with it until 33’s are in my future. What are your thoughts?73C70166-08A6-40CB-B412-E098AC146A26.jpg

    Honestly that looks fine as is. Bigger tires would be nice but if they can wait then you might as well use those

    Nothing strange about having a wheel well the tires can actually articulate into. The truck looks good.

    Check out my build thread (Beginning of Money Pit)
    Are you saying that 33s cannot articulate into wheel wells?

    Looks good to me! I will run my stock tires until they're worn out.

    Is the Pro still stock suspension-wise?

    Edit: Nope, nope it isn't.

    OP, I’d toss on some 1.25” wheel spacers and it would have a balanced stance.

    I had the Icon stage 5 on my truck for almost a year before I upgrade my tires. And I still went with BFG 265s for gas mileage and capability. It kicks ass with this setup. I can tow with stock gearing too with power.

    Don’t get me wrong, new tires are great. They perform better and look better. But I think your setup looks fricken great right now with stock wheels/tires. If they are serving you well, no point in upgrading yet.

    Get some @PikestacoSister vinyl inlays for your wheels to cover the chrome. No point in getting new wheels when you can just make the stock ones look great.

    I think the black-out vinyl and TRD Pro centercaps on the TRD Off Road rims looks great.
