Got my 2013 FX4 supercrew about a year ago. Had an 04 G35 Coupe before and spent some time at g35driver.com so I kind of know how these forums work but want to get myself introduced.

Done: bedliner; toolbox; 20% wrap tint w/ visor; rough country levelkit

Next: Bull Bar w/ LED light bar; tail light guards; bug-guard and window vents

I'm in sales so I'm on the road about 3000+ miles a month and already in need of new tires. Decided to go with the BFgoodrich TA KO-275/70R/18. ANY OPINIONS? Thoughts on re-calibrating the speedometer to account for the upsize?

thanks guys, i'll help you out...

Welcome! Yes, if the tires are taller than stock, you will need to recalibrate.

Welcome! A programmer would be the easiest way to accommodate the larger tires so your spedo is correct.
