    Got my new wheels and tires put on today! :woot: :D

    Level 8 Strike 6's wrapped in 265/75R16 TreadWright Guard Dog's (Nitto Terra Grappler Casings). Took off the front mudflaps, still a little rub at full lock. Loving the look and the stance so far! Will be lifted soon ;)

    Nice! Looks awesome.. Let me know how you like those Guard Dogs. May be my next tire if I hear enough good things about them. The price is definitely right.

    That looks great, only problem is in about 6 months everytime you get out of your truck you will have black shit all over the back of your legs.

    Sweet, what coil springs did you get and what height you plan on running?

    eibachs. The 5100s are at 0 because the springs give you about 3" of lift. If you go above 0 with eibachs you risk messing up your shocks because of the pre load. I installed them this afternoon and they ride like a champ!

    Looks good. I did the same thing but put my Duraliner up to the groove. I took off the stock chrome that was just a glorified dirt catcher, the dirt was eating through my paint.

    Doh! I def meant front hanger.. I know you move them but I can't remember how much. I think it was like 7 inches? $75 a good deal for a pair? Don't know if they are 2 or 3 leafs though.. I wonder how level they would sit with billy/eibach up front?

    Thanks fellas!

    Yea for sure. The Guard Dog's are pretty loud, but bearable. And I pulled the trigger on em because of the price. So far I like em but can't say much as its just the first day.

    I'll most likely post updates as I notice things :)

    7-7.5 every truck is different from what ive heard. Just go at it and decide where it needs to be and tack it in place and set it all up to make sure its right.. & for reference I gave $50 for two packs so that's about all id pay for em especially if your having to drive to get them too... & youll be slightly ass high as my truck sits now, theres some recent pics somewhere.. id post one but I have a new computer and its empty as of now. I have around 5" out back of mine but my leafs are a bastard pack with 3 different makes in it

    yeah looks great! I wish they came in 15" but I guess I am glad they don't because I might have to buy them.

    Hoping to save up enough for a 4.10 gear swap sometime in the future.

    When I was looking at them the guard dogs came in 31x10.5r15 and 33x12.5r15.. No 32x11.5 though which is what I want haha
