    They are 265/75 16s wrangler ultraterrains ats. Super quiet on the road surprisingly. Really like them so far.

    these in gunmetal for color. Come in black and gold also, they look great. Match the fender and number trim well

    discount tire had the best price ordered and installed after shopping around, tires were the best price there as well.

    Thank you.

    I like the gunmetal color. They would look really good on my white truck...

    They really would!

    mid recommend the 0 offset as they come in -10 as well. Zero look perfect with my 265 75 16s. -10 would bow out too far. 0 stick out a tiny bit Those are the two options but obviously that’s personal preference.

    I have been considering these tires myself. I'm wondering how much power loss i may feel between them and the 255/80/17 St max tires i have now

    IMG_4264.jpg IMG_0449.jpg Finally got the truck lifted. Bilstein 5100 all the way around with Toytec 2.5 Coilovers set at .85". Toytec AAL in the rear.

    Method Racing 16" NV 305s with General Grabber A/TX 285/75/16. Additionally, I got bored and decided to plasti dip the emblems to match the rims.

    Waiting on Front/rear bumpers and sliders to come in. Overall, I'm happy about the build so far.

    Perfect color matched. Personally, some matching bedside decals and a color matched bumper and this thing would be perfect!

    Brushed Gunmetal vinyl Wrap came in today. Turned out pretty good. Really makes the letters pop. I'm wondering If I need to put anything on the vinyl to keep it from pealing off. Any thoughts? Maybe get some clear coat touch up paint. My first time messing with vinyl and my take away would be,, I'm really glad I had a heat gun. Would have been really hard without it... Headlights come in Monday :) Getting the new AlphaRex Nova Series lights. Should look good

    My advice ... test a piece first, the last thing you would want is the additives in the clear coat to soften the vinyl.

    The rear bumper is going to be black powder by SOS Offroad. I do have some replacement decals coming in for the rear stickers and amber Baja Fog light inserts. What other areas did you have in mind for matching?

    Honestly it doesn't take much. What you have is perfect. If you want to be really pimp, order some vynil swatches off of metrorestyling and try to find a bronze color of vynil wrap that matches your wheels, and make any sticker you want to put on your truck with it. I did it with my ex girlfriends 4runner and in my opinion its pretty sick
