What do you think?

Just wanted some opinions, I just purchased these step/running boards and I'm torn if I like them or not. Also would you go ahead and replace the factory 255's with some new 285's now or wait till the old one's run out.

Thanks for your thoughts!

I think the bars look good on there. As for the tires, thats your call. I replaced mine before my original set was done, but I had the money and wanted something bigger.

Good for Short People!

Thanks for the comments, I guess I like them good enough. I mainly purchased them for my Wife that's 4' 11 3/4". She always makes me put the 3/4" in there.

I kind of like them. I am running naked right now and like that look but I can see, in this case, your really needing them for function. Those don't "stand out" so I like them.

Wait and then stick some 265's on there.

It's Daystar's 1" Budget Boost Kit. Here's a link to their website:

A friend and I installed ours at the same time except he purchased the Autospring kit. The spacers measure almost the same thickness except mine are a little less than 1/8" difference than the Autosprings.
