    I'm at work and ebay is blocked but if I remember later I'll post the link to the tires I got. They have a very reasonable price and they are mud tires. I kept my stock tires and rims complete. They are sitting in my garage right now. They are my fall back wheels just incase anything happens to these. It can't hurt to have two sets of wheels and tires ;)

    I waited longer than I wanted for my wheels and tires. 2 months and 5k mi on the truck they were replaced. Dont regret the purchase at all, only wish I had done it sooner!

    You have a 3" lift, OE UCAs and they were able to align it properly?

    From want I read around here, that's kinda unusual.

    Can you post a shot of the final alignment numbers?

    No they told me the alignment wont be perfect without new UCA's but they could get it close. I've been meaning to post the printout but I keep forgetting. I'll try and do it tonight or tomorrow.

    I saw a truck here in NJ with one on the back window. I should have asked them.

    Hahaha never. I bought my truck used and they were already on there for me. I want those Dakine roof rack covers though. I just like the way they look.

    Your caster and camber are too low. Meaning it will be a bit harder than it should be to turn (caster) and there is a good likelyhood you will have wear on the inner edge of the front tires from not having enough camber.

    I'd ask them if the UCAs would allow those numbers to get back in the mid range of the spec, and if yes, start saving for them.

    In the meantime, i'd rotate the tires F/R every 5k minimum to share the wear.

    You got the good ole "Toe and go" alignment meaning they didn't even try to fix your shitty caster/camber. Fuck that shop. That's unacceptable.
