Great rims and tires. I love the Oxford white, makes the tires really stand out.

Lift

Daystar only. Minor trimming required. No rubbing.

That's a nice looking truck!

Minor trimming? What did you trim? Also, did you use the Daystar 2-inch lift?

Yes I have to agree with everyone Sweet..They are the nicest rims/tires I saw in some time...Very sharp looking truck...I love the Lariat ...Ford really has the best looking rig on the road...How quiet are they on the highway ??

Minor Trimming

Needed to cut a 2 inch 45 degree angle on the black plastic under the bumper. I've added a picture in the "Tire Close up" album.

That's all you had to trim??? Just the plastic peice under the bumper? I though you'd have to trim part of the wheel well also. I like 35s, but I don't want to have to modify too much.

And I guess you didn't have to do anything to the rear?
