    Speaking of gas mileage my dad drives an 06 f350 with 37X13.5s in tires and he gets 14 in town and 18 on the freeway. Both of which are more than my truck gets. And with his truck being chipped and Magnaflow straight piped that thing has WAY more power than my truck.

    My 35X12.5X17s look skinny next to his truck

    Any of you guys had issues with both front tires wearing alot faster on the inside? It was out of alignment 2 months back.....rotated the good tires to the front after the alignment was done & these 2 are wearing the same way.:mad: I guess it could be out again but Jesus that was quick! :confused:

    I haven't had any wearing issues. Did you get it alligned 2 months ago? What are your specs from your allignment?

    Either the alignment isn't right or you might have a bad wheel bearing or ball joint causing the premature wear

    I haven't had any issues with uneven wearing on my tires :confused: going on the same alignment for 17k miles now. I have to rotate my tires when I get back, what a pain in the ass that is on this truck.

    That might be the problem...the alignment guy is an old timer that uses equipment unlike I've seen before (some kind of attachment to the tires with levels & lights shining on a chart). Nothing is digital and there are no lazers involved, so a spec sheet is probably not even available. People told me he's the best around....but I've worn out all 4 tires now (always on the inside).


    46,000 miles total on the truck...about 20,000+ of that is with the lift/tires on. Maybe I'll try an alignment at the dealer next? :facepalm:

    Yea an allignment is not something to get done cheap. I would definently recommend getting a good shop or dealer do your allignment

    Looking to get some research on these lifts, Looking at just going basic fabtech and upgrading the shocks from there, Anything else needed? Im planning on getting LR UCAs so im sure those will come in handy, Your guys trucks look SICK!

    Look at getting a lifetime alignment which most firestone or tiresplus offer then you can get it done whenever

    WTF!? The Firestone by my house said they don't offer a lifetime alignment on a lifted truck? They would only do a standard alignment for like $80. Maybe they know I'd be in there every other month. :D

    Got the front done, I'll take pictures of tires mounted once it's all done.. put the EBC rotors & pads on, along with the stainless extended lines from JP which worked great.

    Not re-installing the sway bar to see how that rides, also since it looks stupid hanging that far below the bumper.. so I'm going to ditch those angled sway bar drop brackets & make new straight plates for the reservoirs & try to raise them a little more. They happened to work right there with those brackets so for the time being it's fine and the tires have several inches of clearance from them at full lock..

    Ran into a few small issues, and took breaks.. no hurry.. so the front took all day lol. Heading back over to my step dad's shop to start on the rear soon. Once the rear's done we're changing the oil in both differentials & transfer case, & cranking the coilovers just a little if needed to match the front fender to ground height to the rear.

    More pics soon!

    Might want to check another store but almost all should. Doesn't matter car or truck or if you have a tires plus try them.

    Finished up today, need an alignment tomorrow.. then I'll adjust the front coilovers since one sides a little lower than the other, and the fronts a little lower than the rear.. & I'll get pictures of the truck.

    Going to make new brackets for the front Fox reservoirs, just used the Fabtech supplied sway bar brackets for now since they dropped them down.

    Actually my Tundra is about the same on gas as myTaco was.

    My 06" Taco got 17 mpg stock. With the 35" tires I was getting 13mpg.

    My Tundra stock is getting 16.5 mpg, a buddy of mine has 37" tires and he gets 12.5mpg. I think with 35" tires it would be 13 mpg.
    So really not much difference in mpg.
    But a huge difference in interior room of the truck, and power.:D
