Debating On Getting Tow Mirrors

Hey everyone,
I need opinions. I'm debating on getting some tow mirrors for the truck. I feel as though my truck could pull them off... but some people seem to think not or that the stock mirrors look better. I don't tow anything, so they are not an essential need to have. Can I get some opinions? Would they look proportionate? Or maybe some pictures of anyone with tow mirrors? Especially anyone with a truck similar to mine.

Thanks y'all,
-Barrett

Buy them. You are lifted with tires sticking out 1" past the fenders, it will look right at home

Buy them, I ordered a set for my truck but I tow stuff pretty frequently. I think they look really good on lifted trucks, way better than the little stock mirrors plus you can see a lot more. The only down side is that they increase the width of the truck so parking takes a bit more work but since your truck is lifted it shouldnt be too bad.

Parking is already a lot of work, I just barley fit in the spots at my apartment complex. So I park away from everyone, nothing new to me
