    No, I'm keeping them for emergency's. And I couldn't wait any longer. If I didn't spend it on my truck it would have all went to the girl LOL.

    For the price, I wouldn't change a thing except for 5125 billy's in the rear instead of 5100's.

    But I want to upgrade to OME coils, and drop my 5100's to .85

    How is the rubbing in the front? How do you like the Nitto trails?

    Nice looking truck by the way

    Trimmed A LOT of plastic fender well, and a little of the actual painted bumper. It doesn't rub the body mount thank goodness. But I just noticed today that The inside of my rear fender flare has been rubbed pretty hard. I guess stuffed the rear too hard ;)

    The trails are sexy ofc, but I don't think they are going to last as long as I wished. They are pretty soft. Just from the few wheeling trip I've taken them on, there are small chunks of rubber missing from the tread.

    How badly was your mileage affected? I found a set of duratracs in 275 65 18 that weigh 50 lbs. Im assuming thats a little lighter than your tire. Just wondering if its worth the size smaller to get a lighter tire.

    I think you need more pictures of the new rims and tires.. i was sad when i got to the last one, so i had to start over again.. 2 more times. lol. LOOKS AWESOME!!!
    I have 5100s set at 2.5 but im still running stock tires and rims. Trying to decide what I want to go for, and gas mileage and rubbing are concerns, but I do want the biggest tires I can get.
    If you could post your avg mpg and driving habits that would be great. Pics of where you trimmed would be good too.

    thanks!
