    285/75/16. How do you llike yours? Did they change your mpg's? Was going to go with st maxx but a lot more money and it wouldve taken a while longer to get.

    Thats the size I have now but rugged trails. Not at all happy with those tires so I decided to go bigger with the lift.

    I was only staying there for the week since Joliet was full. Too bad we could have met up or something, it's pretty boring sometimes staying in a hotel. But it's back to Peoria for the time being ill post something when I head back up that way

    Juan its very easy to do and is definitely well worth doing it. Your truck being new though I would be sure to use a finer grade clay to avoid causing swirls and other defects

    Cool, that's good to know. I had no idea there were different clays. This is something I'm gonna try sometime this summer.
