Looks great! But I really think if the bumpers were all white

Mixedbreed, I just noticed you travel like i do, with the stock rims on there.

I like the peace of mind that if I have a tire problem or a blowout I'll be able to find a replacement rather easily on the road, where ever that may be.

that is exactly why. the spare is fullsize, the tire sensors are there, and if i need a new one it is far cheaper and more readily available. not to mention the better MPG's. smart minds think alike

looks great! I love the painted chin spoiler. IDK i like the look of the stock wheels too

but really only 19 flat? I usually got 19.5-21 on the highway depending on speed from my sliver truck. Already have a trip of 20.5 on my "new truck"

As for the rear sway bar, have you thought about or looked into rear helper bags? They can help with body roll and are practical for doing any towing instead of doing the sway bar.

Well he was doing the mountain twisties.

I usually pull 20-21MPG fully loaded on trips to the coast, but that's all highway.

there were a LOT of turns and well, the gas was on almost as much as the brakes. i will see what i get as i head back cause i think i will be taking 5/99/58/15 back to vegas.

as far as the all white bumper, i will have to see. i really like screw me's with the chrome bumpers and the chrome wheels.
the stockers are nice and i think if i could get a set of 20's or 22's i would roll with them too but the 24's look pretty mean without the drop. i cant wait to get home and put them all on now that i have replaced my bad one.
