    Yeah I agree. They're 275/70/17 but when they're done she needs 285's and rims with better BS and it will look mean as hell.

    Soon, I'll be installing the gf's front skid tomorrow along with finishing putting primer on the diff skid and towers. Monday should be installing all my skids. The towers will be sitting in the garage for a while.

    And for the record, even though the skids (minus the bamf one) were aluminum they were a bitch to mount by myself.
