I know this post is a couple years old but I'd like to ask you few questions.
Do the tires rub in the wheel wells during a tight turn?
Did your gas MPG suffer?
Did your truck have any part of the fog light harness Pre wired?
Thanks

 

haven't been on this site for years haha. I haven't done anything new to my truck. i might have mistyped something and said i have the lift and tires, but i don't have them :/ thats actually why I'm back on this website haha going to look at lifting it with fat bobs lift and some nitto AT tires.

for the fog lights: no i just zip tied the wire to the frame. honestly not sure if that answers it but i had to hook them up to battery and fuse box (they only work when ignition is on) i still have that crappy button that i want to replace with the OEM one. reply if you need an answer that makes sense! hahahaha

 

I like those wheels. Where did you get them?
