    Guess I'll stick with the 235/75s for now and consider a lift after I get the car paid off. :D I'm not a huge fan of cutting up the well liners.

    Well if you're manual I reccomend staying 235s. Auto might be sluggish with 30s, but you will still not be in the regear range.

    Correct, 31's and above pretty much require a regear.

    Max speed limit where we live is 35mph. I'm sure the owner isn't too concerned about it..

    They should be a direct bolt-on and go, for a straight exchange. Your best bet would be to find a 5-lugger out there relatively local, that wants the flared fenders - make friends with them, and plan on a weekend spent with your new buddy and a case of beer, switching them over. No joke.

    I don't know if the auto-jobbers non-OEM replacement fenders that are available, would be available as 5-lug specific - without the fender line punch-outs.

    $52.00?!? weight for weight, i'm betting a trip to the grocery store for a comparable amount of tin-foil rolls would be more expensive.

    Good to see the panels aren't punched for the fender flares, by the advertising. My obvious guess is that this is a clearance sale, with 5-lugs now being obsolete.

    Anodized lug nuts and a pop and lock.
    What precludes 2nd gen 5-lug trucks from running a longer coilover instead of a spacer up front with stock spring and longer shock? The suspension geometry should be the same assuming the spacer and coilovers give the same oal increase. Someone educate me please : D
