Installed the trail grapps

Hey guys...been searching around here forever and finally got enough money to start "playing" around with my truck. Put a 2.5" HBS level kit on and rear lift shackle. Also installed the new nitto trail grapplers on my stock wheels 295/70/18. I love these tires! Just thought I'd post some pics because there's probably alot of people just like me wondering what they look like. Heres a couple quick pics....let me know what you think. Thanks guys

thanks, i'm a big waterfowl hunter and love Max-4. Didn't know how it would turn out on a red truck, but I like it. I guess camo is my alternative to chrome...haha

Are they 295/65 or 295/70?
sorry about that, they're the 295/70/18. I've been looking at tire sizes for so long I think I'm going crazy! I'm happy with my final decision though.

Well it looks great! I wish I would've gone with a more aggressive tire the last time I changed, but I do way too much highway driving to have a M/T.

Go with BFGs and rotate every 3k. My buddy got 58k out of his BFGs. Mine are going to go at least 50k no problem.
