I get my RIZE tomorrow!!!

Well after much debating between friends and reading many threads I finally did it. My distributor sent it out today and I will get it tomorrow. So i decided to do something a little different, I went with the mazzi hulks and mud grapplers

In all seriousness I did want something different so I went with the new kumho tires since there has been absolutly no one on here that i could find with them I Figured i would be the ginny pig on theese. hope it works out for me.

During my hunt i noticed something about the kumhos i really liked which hasnt been done on many f-150's. they come in a 37/13.5/22. so I took the plunge and went with the new xd racing diesel's in black in a 22x11. My only fear is the tires wont look right because of the sidewall, but since no one else has done this i figured it would be the only way to find out.

Anyway the wheels and tires should be here by monday with just enough time to get the truck aligned monday morning.

wish me luck its going to be a fun weekend

The trick to the rize lift is to not tighten all the bolts til the end. Its not easy to watch some of the bolts and nuts get burried knowing you need to tighten them down, but it makes things go much smoother. Once you have things set, punch the bolts down very tight!
