    I'm not sure on my next tires still. 33's I can go with treadwright again but they are bringing out a new tread pattern that's identical to the old Goodyear mtr I guess. I still really like the coppers too.

    35's man you know you want do..the more i contemplate i feel like i should just say fuggit and go 35's..staring at Monte's truck sure isn't helping either. The nice huge gap in my All-pro bumper should make it easy to trim the fenders or run glass :eek: im sure one of my welding buddies has the ability to weld some steel in for the cab chop.

    I think its surprising that the KM2's dont do better since they have such an open lug pattern. Maybe siping them would help :notsure:

    Tubing ain't no joke..takes a few days. But pretty sweet yes :D haha

    just wait till you park next to me..lol

    but that said. You'd HAVE to regear to actually use the truck. to 5.29s with the auto. Im going to end up with 5.29s i think just cause they are like 200 cheaper..

    so that adds like a grand or so to the cost of doing 35s.

    A locker makes re gearing brutal. Gears alone isn't that bad though.

    Yeah the locker would almost be a must lol would suck having to tear it down allover again/pay someone to do it to put a locker in down the road. Compressors aren't cheap either.

    ECGS said I didn't need a master kit for the front as long as the person installing knew what they were doing. Saves quite a bit of money.

    Yeah that would knock a nice little chunk off the price. I have no idea who i'd trust to do that install around here though. I'd have to look around.

    I hear ya. its a big investment and I wouldn't be going through with it unless I sold the bike. I'd rather eat and enjoy life than suck and have gears :).

    I haven't followed the open much. I just talk to a girl I know about how she is doing in it so I hear about most of the work outs.
