    62 mentions high elevations. I'd ask for 58-18. Explain to your service guy that your truck is doing all the stuff outlined in the Tsb and it's driving you crazy. They should do it for you.

    As far as PITA I’d rate it easily 9/10

    First wheel it was 105 in my garage about 2 hours after a grocery store trip. The wheels were still WARM (not hot) and it stretched the vinyl. I butchered a few stickers because it folded in on itself. About 2 hours later I had 1.5 wheels done and it was just ok.

    2 weeks later.....

    Jacked up and removed wheels, washed and laid them flat in my garage at night with a beer.

    Applied beautifully, few bubbles, ZERO f* ups, 10/10 would recommend doing this method just for the frustration

    I got them on Etsy. No instructions. Each wheel has 6 left and 6 right sections. 12 stickers per wheel.

    Finished the other 3 wheels in less than 3 hours. 10/10 love the look. More durable than plasti dip and far less clean up.

    I’ve dipped rims in the past and I prefer this method. It was a hard lesson to learn but if I’d of known I would have removed the wheel in the first place and saved a TON of fristration.

    There are bubbles but supposedly they fade over time and aren’t very noticeable.

    There is someone on here making new ones for the sport that will supposedly have double sided paper to aid with application

    Well, it was a pretty busy week so far, I mounted rear floods, front ditch lights, a separate circuit to the bed running two 12v outlets and two USB ports (getting ready for a Dometic electric cooler). Replaced my fogs with the Rigid Kit, installed the pop & lock remote tailgate lock, installed the Genesis Off Road Dual Battery kit, installed the Switch-Pros 9100 using the PowerTrays bracket and Blue Sea Systems components, mounted the Panel on a SDHQ custom panel mount, installed the Cali Raised LED faux TRD Pro Grill, installed a Bak Industies X4 Revolver Tonneau Cover and finally got my Graphite TRD SEMA Wheels with Nitto Ridge Grapplers 265/70R17. Now time to take a little break and enjoy before the next set of mods!!!11D35960-01AB-497D-A179-61B5B597E3AB.jpg 64E20584-E1DA-458E-86B7-27549BD897D0.jpg 5BBF1687-F370-4C9E-BB7D-95ECD355F819.jpg 98D59DB9-450B-4776-97CE-27B28D33E638.jpg A5D4E381-786A-427D-A709-39709C0C79BA.jpg 251D637A-43FF-4DEB-914F-A964CF61D6FC.jpg BE5BE6AD-365F-49DB-BA1F-63DA3257CFAA.jpg

    What size is your baja rack? I have a smittybilt defender which is 54"x54" and I'm wondering which size gladiator net to get.

    Edit: Nevermind. I think I found your dimensions: 48"x60". I think I'm just going to get their small version 57"x72" (4.75'x6') to allow for stacked gear height.

    Blackout package - planned: black bed logos, black wheel vinyls, front seat window tint, tires.
    I'm looking to do this. Did you find the vinyl ready-cut, or did you have to cut it yourself? Interested in the process. Thanks.

    Looks cool. Although I've read many times that if you don't wear gloves with an alcantara steering wheel it won't hold up well. Assuming you don't plan on wearing gloves, give us an update after a few K miles.

    You just need to brush it with a nylon brush every time you wash it. Think suede shoe care.

    Your right. This net is actually 63" x 64" so theres enough extra to allow for stacked gear.
