    So for the masses they are on:yes:
    Happy overall especially for the price road manners are great it’s so quiet now I hear the leafs squeaking ever so slightly now lol.
    Put about 30mi on them grip aweosme on the street we’ll see in the dirt soon enough.

    Very very minimal rubbing just at full lock forward and reverse kinda of disappointed they are right at 33in tall mounted but way bigger than last set. This is the best truck has ever drove since modding.
    :woot:

    Look great Matt. Glad it wasn’t as bad as you were expecting. They really fill out the wheel well nicely. Can’t wait to hear the dirt report

    Thanks Robert :fistbump:

    I’m happy with them can’t fit my head in the fender anymore. 9/20 I’ll put them to the test:mudding:

    You coming out that weekend?

    I haven’t been keeping up with events. What’s happening on 9/20? HF I’m assuming? If so, I’m still hesitant to push it too hard until I get sliders and with my offset on my wheels I’m worried I might rip stuff up? I may still come out and catch a ride with someone if I can find a willing passenger seat open.

    Ya HF there is plenty of stuff you can do in even a stock truck and have so much fun.
    Someone mentioned they wanted to ride with me if they back out your more than welcome to.

    I’ve been “Off Road” and through some pretty nasty mud but never done the whole rocks thing. We will see if I get the nerve up. Either way wether I ride w you or someone else or wheel my own I hope to make it out there. Be my first time

    I was super nervous my first time out there it can be very intimidating. Best advice ride in the middle or back of a group and see how others do. They have bypasses also if your unsure of something at most hard obstacles.
    Usually a lot of folks show up and break off into like a rowdy crowd to just folks who wanna trail ride. You truck lifted will do well on most stuff.

    Yes usually in early spring during the rainy season. It’s so dry it’s basically flash floods in the ditches but the regular trails will be usually for a week or so.
