    For those who have been there/done that,
    Looking to do a new set of Duratracs and 5100's + AAL. I'm going to do ONE now and ONE in 6-8 months.
    From your experiences, does sequence on these mods matter?
    I suppose there is an option "C", to do both now, but I'm attempting to exercise some fiscal responsibility (little one on the way soon).

    Sticking with 265's, for several reasons and going to set the Billies at 1.75, mostly looking for better "ride" quality and to level my rig.

    id do the lift first, burn up the tread on your current tires, then buy the Duratracs when NEEDED. that can be more easily justified to the wife/girlfriend if you need it.

    Yeah lift first. Depending on the tire size you might not even be able to fit them (without severe rubbing) without the lift.
