    Not to hijack, but I have a single set I'll let go for a tad over shipping costs. I bought two, but my passenger prefers the stock seat position.

    Back on track, I'm torn between the 255/85 R16 and 265/75 R 16. My only hold up is the E rating. Given I do mostly highway with a few weekends a year offroading, I'm not sure what the best option would. Any suggestions on the happy balance of comfortable on road ride while still being able to get around in the woods?

    Thanks!

    I don't mind my E rated tires when they're aired down appropriately.

    Well, I stopped in and put money down on a new set of tires yesterday.. Got the call today at noon about delivery, and drove away with this badass set of 255/85r16 Cooper ST Maxx!

    All I can say is I have 265/75/16 and am looking to go skinny. If you're near Norfolk, Va I'd be glad to sell my 265/75/16 KO2 to you for a decent discount, less than 10k on em.

    @Alesimo Your truck still sitting on the stock Pro Fox shocks and springs with both the Toyo's and the bumper? I assume the bumper is steel? Any issues and/or rubbing with this set up?

    No they are King 2.5 Ext w/ adjusters and the #700 springs w/ TC UCAs.
    My dumb ass went to 4Wheel Parts and they maxed the - Castor (-3.5). So because of that, it rubs at full lock with compression. So entering parking lots or driveways. I'm going to get it realigned at a legit Offroad shop here soon enough.

    Guess it was wishful thinking that you were still on the stock Pro Fox suspension

    I ran the bumper with it for about a month. Tires came after the suspension. If you plan on getting a full steel bumper, I would plan to get stiffer springs.

    My plan is to go aluminum in the front to keep the truck lighter on its toes and also hoping to still allow the continued use of the factory Pro suspension.

    I will say, I didn't think the suspension could get better and it is so much better now.
