    Just got my alignment done from the 5100 install. Tonight I'm going to look at tires. Not sure either 265/75r16. Or the 285/75r16. It is my dd so I'm not sure if I want to take the hit on my mpg. I have the aal and billies at 2.5, what tire size is best for a dd? I'm running 265/70/16 now.

    I just find it hard to see leds performing that well as headlights. To much glare. Maybe Im wrong I would have to see in person. Besides retrofits look sick, that bar in the headlight is eh in my opinion.

    Thanks for the link. Yea pics are always hard to tell. Maybe I'll talk my buddy into getting them for his 91 toyota pickup and then I could compare them.
