    ^RETROS are a must ever since I had them on my previous set up. I decided to leave the parking light/blinker chrome to break it up. It also reflects the bulbs much better. When its black, it will drown out the light output without the reflection. That way it matches my LED light bars. I didn't want it all blacked out this time around as the bowl is already black.

    :D​


    Thanks again LOADED for your help before in answering my questions regarding those TRD Rims. . . You were of great help. Truck is looking awesome man. . .

    ^Pffffft. You and RJ are beasting around with your Tacos. . .

    Love the facelift and love my BFG. . .

    Red Labels were great for the DIRT when I had them. I don't off-road enough to justify them. However mine were 33x12.5 and super heavy on street and driving. They were super wide and I'm not regeared like you are. I've been driving a lot more now and need something more user friendly.

    I also wanted to switch my look up and went with 16's. If I got a deal on a set of Red Labels in 285/75/16. I would've went with them again but after having the BFG AT. I think I found my tire I'll keep getting the future.

    I did like them and I actually prefer my BFG A/T over them. They are fantastic all around and they handled just fine in the dirt the two times I tested them. They don't feel sluggish compared to the red labels. However they were two different tires in size.

    I have 285/75/16 now and it differs from the 33x12.5x17 I had before.

    The BFG just aren't as cool as the Red Labels. LOL

    ^Thanks Will for the nice work. Exactly what I needed as a low profile clean design. This is a very nicely built complete bolt on light bar rack. I'm more than happy with the finished product. ​


    Thanks to Blitzpro for the pair of 21" on top.     ​
