I'm a very honest person but call bs when I see it.
Your running awesome tires btw.
And thump, you bought an awfully familiar truck in every way, wrapped in awfully familiar tires...same size too

BREW I don't know if you are still considering the Pro-Comp kit but that is what I am running and it has taken a beating. I bought the kit on sale with a lifetime warranty no questions asked for like 1400. I opted not to get the coilovers because of finances and I could buy them later. BTW P.C. does increase track width. I know because I put my stockers back on and they were rubbing on the steering knuckle. They say that they increase it minimally.

The 18x9 Helo's will stick out 1 1/2 inches farther than the OEM wheels. I'm not sure exactly how much the Fabtech lift increases your front track width.
Also, the Rize lift does not increase you track width any.

Ahh cool. Thanks man. The Fabtech adds about 3/4" to each side from what I'm told. That wont be bad at all. Looking at my wheels today I have some room before they are even with the top of the wheel well. I think this is going to work out just fine. Thanks Wandell....I've been waiting all day for your reply.

Deff. not discontinued. I don't know why he's having a hard time finding them. I guess, Ill just get them online somewhere. Once I get out of this hot friggen state of Florida and get back home, I'll start looking for the best deal online.
