Oh man...how burnt are these rears (tires)?! I seriously love these ICON's. It feels like what the truck should've come with. But yes knowing how cost-effective it would've been....I get it. Now I just have to convince the significant other to let me go nuts and replace the fronts along with the springs, etc.

Thanks. I seriously love 'em. I can't believe how much bigger the bushings are compared to the stockers. Wow. Night and day. And the weight of the shock vs. the Bilstein..no comparison. Did you ever find/fix the vibration on yours?
