    I watched the video. Looked like there was some cutting. Not sure I'm comfortable doing that myself.

    It’s the SSO Slimline Hybrid with no cutouts. I love it.

    There is definitely cutting. It wasn’t hard. We just used a razor knife. If I had to do it again, I would leave it mounted for the cutting. We cut a little at a time so it wasn’t as scary as it seems.

    Some trimming yes. But you can do it at a mod day for sure. You’ll need an extra set of hands or two. I wasn’t comfortable doing it alone, but having other dudes there to trouble shoot made it easy. Knocked it out in like 2 hours.
    I got it in a group buy. They do a couple every year.

    I like your style here. Simple yet aggressive.

    What’s your set up? I’m guessing wheel spacers and stock suspension? What size tire? Any rub? Going for a similar look when I get mine.

    Yea I’m a minimalist haha. I like the dark colors. Wheel spacers with stock OR suspension is correct. Have 5100s with 885s sitting in the garage. Waiting to put a few more miles on the stocks before I upgrade. Also have some Ray 10s inbound but the spacers will do for now. No rub at all. TRD Pro wheels with 265/75R16

    Yep. Ran em without spacers for about a thousand miles already. If I only ran what I NEEDED the truck would still be stock. They’re only for the looks.

    If I wanted your opinion I would’ve posted a question asking for it.

    I appreciate your advice. I really do. But it’s condesending when you tell someone to educate themselves. There’s no way I would do anything to my truck without doing ample amounts of research and weighing the risks.

    Dude this is the MGM thread. If you want to bestow your all infinite wisdom on people with spacers go find one of the many spacer threads. I suppose the other wording would be EAD

    Yes, but it might be unrelated.

    Rectally? Quite possibly... on your truck? less likely, but still possible.

    If you’re not going any crazy off-roading and get hub centric like bora or soidertrax you’ll be ok. The downer is most tire shops won’t touch them so you’ll need to do your own tire rotations.
