    I'm hoping for 40K. In only have about 3K so far, and no wear. I stuck the caliper and they are exactly what a new tire is. Not bad, but we'll see.

    Those Km2's are pretty awesome. Pretty close race for me, and decided on the Goodyear's. I did a little damage to them on the rocks a few weeks back, so hope they hold up ok on the road now.

    They are 16" rims, same kind as yours. with 33's. I had to trim a bit to squeeze them in. Plus a bit of rubbing on the trails.

    Nice truck man! I was wondering what kind of trimming you had to do with your kit? Do you get any rub lock to lock? Do you know the offset of your wheels? I assume they are 16x10? Sorry for all the questions
