Sweet truck!!

Mind you ,please, do me a favor, use tape measure and measure tire height and width?

I read the website on BFG's it said 33x11.5 ish..but need to see the real actual size height and width and what psi you set it?

Thanks!
YOMAN!

Thanks for the compliments. I have a 2" EZlift on the front.

The tires measure almost exactly what BFG states.

305/65 = 15.6" of tire plus wheel

285/75 = 16.8" of tire plus wheel

I'm not Wandell but I think those numbers are accurate...

305/65 = 15.6" + 16" wheel = 31.6" tall 12" wide
305/65 = 15.6" + 17" wheel = 32.6" tall 12" wide

285/75 = 16.8" + 16" wheel = 32.8" tall 11.2" wide
285/75 = 16.8" + 17" wheel = 33.8" tall 11.2" wide

I love the black / silver combination, very nice.
Where did you get the 2inch EZLift from?
how does it ride / handle?

I got the lift from direct from EZlift on Ebay. The ride is a little stiffer but I think it is more the tires than the lift.
