    Thats the thing I wanna offroad more, but no one to go with :( I would love to get the icons but feel I wouldnt offroad enough, the ome is reasonable at about a grand with new leafs and front shocks and coils. I want to run 285 kumho kl71 m/t wich are also not bad price wise. Idk tho, after seeing relentless truck 35"s on a 3" looks sick.

    just remember that 35'' = regear. which isn't super cheap.


    as far as the icons vs OME, if you think you'll use it someday, might as well do it now. just saves you the hassle of upgrading twice.

    i redid my first lift after only 8 months and got the icons because the wheeling surpassed the level of the shocks real quick. i wasn't using OME though.

    How hard is a regear? I have a buddy that is graduating from UTI soon and a tech savy jeep friend who me and my bro helped install a d44 in place of his d35

    in the long run, the price difference in the 3 tires is extremely small.

    i'd still make the choice based on perfomance in the kind of terrain you drive in. from what i've seen and heard, the km2s dig a little more in the snow and loose sand (not in a good way), but handle everything else great. the MTRs for whatever reason seem to float over really really soft stuff like that a little better.

    The more and more I look at the Pyrite Mica the more I start to like/love it. It would look damn good with black rims and some camo trim :D

    not so much.

    I'm really happy with my ome setup but I haven't ridden in a truck with Icon so I'm useless.

    Those would be my second choice. I liked the km2's over them because they've been out longer so I had a better idea on how long they should last and because I had to be like the cool kids.

    You know how I know you are in the middle of hicksville?
