    Those wheels look awesome with the Speedway Blue. I have the same tires in the same size and have done some wheeling in the mountains with great results. I'm not one for mudding so I can't comment on their ability in mud. I love the tires and would recommend them to anyone.

    Thanks. I'm dying to get them out to test I've been slammed with work lately. From everything I heard of them up until now... I don't think I'll have any problems offroad. We're still at least a month away from any real snow, so I'm interested to see how they handle... its actually one of the reasons I even bought them.

    I also was f'n around with some more shit with my truck... so I'll have some new pics up soon with the updates... :cool:

    They are great in snow but as for ice / hard pack they are good but not as good as a dedicated snow tire (in 2wd). Don't get me wrong they are a lot better than the stock Bridgestone Dueler's but I'm not going to exaggerate and say that they perform as well as a winter tire. If it's really icy you are better off in 4hi anyway.

    Very classy looking truck with clean lines on your truck.

    IMO .. it would even look better if you debadged the entire truck, including TRD stickers.

    I did mine and I love it ... much easier to wash & wax too.

    PS ... Very cool looking wheels too.

    Thanks, I was debating about removing them anyways. I found a very sleek TRD badge that I've never seen before, at a local shop that I'm thinking of using. It would be the toned down way of presenting the TRD and it would be placed on the front door panel as opposed to the rear 1/4 panel. They want quite a bit for the badging, but they are quality solid peices. I just hope they have 2 of them...
