    Hey all,

    Brand new to the forum and have a couple questions. I recently got a 2011 DC 4x4. It has ironman all country a/t tires on it, 245/75 r16 and my buddy gave me his old pro comp wheels which are 16x8. I'm not too familiar with wheels/tires and was wondering f I could put my tires on those wheels?

    Also, my rear bumper is chrome and I'm thinking of plastidipping it matte black along with the grill and emblem. Good idea or no?

    And finally , I've been told the only way to go for a lift is old man emu. Does anyone agree/disagree? Thanks

    Too poor to list anything interesting.

    Welcome to TW.

    As far as the lift is concerned, you'll get a myriad of advice about what you can get. First, you need to figure out:
    1) What is your budget
    2) What kind of driving you will be doing with your truck

    From there, the forum will be able to help.

    Trying not to spend more than 2 grand or so. As far as driving, mostly mud/dirt and would be my daily driver as well

    I don't think anyone answered your first questions so I guess I will!
    Yes those tires will fit on those wheels absolutely.
    I have my rear bumper plasti dipped black as well and I like the look of it a lot more then chrome. Same with my grille before I did a mesh grill and color matched.
