    That is likely for one tire.
    you thought wrong.

    I have done a ton of research and hand have not found a single instance of a Treadwright tire failing. The NHTSB did a study on the tire carcasses on the side of the road and found that slightly more than half were from new tires vs retreads.

    This truck is a work truck - not a lot of fancy mod's here, but it's getting the job done!
    What do you guys think of my paint job: Smoke gray with bed liner black bottom and bumpers - metallic black on the chrome parts of the bumpers and the grille. Took the badges off too.

    So I have been working on this front bumper for a good 2 months now (concept to completion). It ended up a little taller than I planned but other then that pretty much exactly what I originally envisioned.

    This is the original concept idea:

    ^ Nice Work!

    Does seem a little high, does it cut off your light beams at all?
