New Wheels & Tires .... Again!!!!!

Thats right. I jsut couldn't handle having less than 35s. So with less than 2500 miles, I switched rims and tires. Check out the before & after & after. I absolutely love the new set up.

Are those 18s you took off? 275/65s? If so let me know if you'd like to sell them.

Very nice! If I may ask, where did you get those side steps? I'd like a set just like those for when I get my truck.

Thanks everyone. Here are the specs on everything. The first set was ProComp 8128s (18x9 / 5" BS / 0 offset) with 305/65/18 BFG ATs (33.7x12.2). The new set up is XD Monsters (18x9 / 6.38" BS / 35 offset) with 285/75/18 Toyo MTs (35.1x11.6). All sitting under a 2" ProComp leveling kit. I will post better pics this weekend when I have a chance to clean her up.

Dunesgirl - the steps are NFabs - got them from 4WP

How about some side pictures to get an idea of what the difference between 5 and 6.38" BS is. I know the difference is 1.38" but visually please. Oh and I like the final decision, looks great man!!!

Looks real good, although I was really digging your last setup. Do you rub at all? Oh and I have long been considering copying you on the step bars.

Thanks alot. I really wanted to go with 35s. Just couldnt make it work with that back spacing. Minor trimming with the old set up. No new trimming this time. The other benefit was the monsters are a much lighter wheel. The PCs were so heavy, after we swapped them there was a noticeable difference driving.

Do the steps - you'll love em,
