    Yeah they turned out amazing. It did end up costing more for the shop to do the install because they had to take apart the whole back panel on the truck but it is what it is,

    $600. They said they had a hard time with one of the headrest, and they put new foam in both the front seats. Also the passenger side seat had like a plastic panel thing that also made it difficult. I was not very happy at all really that I got charged 300 more than what I was quoted but oh well. It did sound like it would not cost as much if you had a normal DC

    Bought a new dual piston air compressor from NAPA today. My Viair is just not up to the task of 35's. Was fine doing the 33's but these are WAY bigger tires. I have a Viair 300p if some one wants it. $50, needs the hose sorted out as I don't know what I did with the one it came with, but have the one from my new compressor to throw in. needs ends sorted out. These run $125-$155 or so.

    What size tire do you have?
    I forgot.
    Are they bigger or smaller than a 33?

    Way off?

    You know what the difference is between my method and your method?

    I didn't have to get on the ground. :D

    :playball:

    Since you have to take the inner off to get to the outer... Do them both. :thumbsup:
