Looks great, BlkButy! It makes a big difference in the appearance of your truck.

I had to make a run to Hooters - just to get to drive it - weather is sunny but don't let it full ya! When we put them in at 8am this morning it was 6 degrees - well inside his shop it was toasty!!!!

I love the look - took a PIC with phone at Wally world, a 4x4 white XLT pulled in next to me - he was the same in front and about an inch (maybe) in back taller.

I got the alignment done same time as we installed the spacers.

I am ordering 285/65R18's Nitto TG's on Friday.

I personally like the OEM wheels for now.

If I could sale them for about $600.00 I would buy new wheels.

The truck looks great. When you get the tires on post pictures in this tread so we can see the difference. I would like to see aftermarket tires on those stock wheels as I have the same wheels.

Ditto to the pictures. I have the same truck but in black. I just installed me 2" AS today. I love the new stance on our trucks! Im thinking about going with the same tires you have mentioned on the same stock wheels. How much have you been quoted on the wheels?

It's hard to say really because the guy is giving me $200.00 for my stock tires since they have less than 4k miles on them. So probably cost me around $600.00. I may decide to hold off and run these and get alot of other things done to the truck 1st.

Like:

Dual Exhaust
Tonneau Cover
CAI
New Stereo/Speakers
Bug shield (Maybe)
