Truck going in for the big change

I'm new here to the board but after reading all the great advice on here I'm going ahead with my plans for my 04 sCrew. I'm having a 6 inch pro comp lift with 35 BFg's on 17x9 pro comp 1069's put on. I opted out for the cheaper lift with out the coil over as I'm finding out how much rims and tires will overrun your budget for a truck.

Just curious how many of you guys out ther have the same setup and what it looks like?

Hurricane was fun but delayed the parts in getting here. Loks like I will be without my truck for 2 days while the install happens. Can you say....compact rental car...gulp!

Matt

I will! Found out today my rims an tires won't be here till friday, so I will be one of those guys driving around with stock rims and tires for a while. It will look a bit funky for a day but at least I will have wheels then. I think with the money I saved on the cheaper lift I am going to spring for the superchips computer mod. I have 3.73's on there now with LS diff and it might make the engine work a bit harder.
