    I would love to go 35's but weight is a serious issue for me and i dont want to cut everything remaining on my truck to make them fit. Already have a CMC and trimmed the fenders a good bit. Have 0 rub right now and truck rides about as good as i remember it riding in a long time right now.

    My CMC isn't good enough and the cutting never stops lol. I have fun trimming, though.

    Spindles FTW man!!

    Agreed, probably the least practical, but definitely will look the best :p

    :drool:

    Im scared to see how much cutting is necessary. Hopefully can leave the flares with the spindles

    Well it's looking like the vinyl order is gonna be a flop. Tried two different vendors. First one said they dont have it, and cant get it. Second one is avoiding me and wont ship the product. Doubt they have it tbh.. Trying to get my refund now, opened a dispute today. Getting frustrated and may scratch the wrap idea altogether until the new 3M 2080 comes out.

    Grille came in today. Couple of tabs were broken off of it, but all i needed was the chrome surround and the rubber trim piece, so i swapped my stock surround onto the cheapo surround. To my surprise all the clips lined up perfectly. Fitment around the headlights is not perfect, but im alright with it. Ive never liked a chrome grille but this one is aight:rofl:

    Not much new here man! Just working away, doing some planning for black friday shopping.. Wbu sir?

    Agreed! Glad you made the swap, i think the 5.29s might be better suited for the auto on 33s. My truck feels a bit overgeared, but i do like it. Better than being a slug

    Yea, i can see that. Mine feels just about right. Could be a little more zippy but def not complaing it is great considering all the weight.
