My new $400 tires and wheel's! "Warning large pic's"

Here they are mounted on my truck. After a little trimming I somehow managed to fit these tire's and wheel's on my truck. The tire's are Toyo Open Country A/T's size 325/60-18 mounted on a set of 18" KMC wheel's. So far I have noticed a little loss in power not too bad though. My fuel mileage on the highway dropped from 17mpg at 75 mph to 15mpg and from 15mpg in the city to 12-13 mpg. Overall I like the new look though.

Yea man they are some big tire's but for $400 though, I'm not complaining. I don't mind driving around with them till they wear out and then i'll buy some smaller one's.

Thanks for the compliment's. I will post some more picture's with the rim's cleaned up, they were oxidized bad when I first got them as you can tell in my first pic's. I don't think the guy has ever cleaned them. He also has a bullbar with two KC's mounted on it for $100 it's only two year's old and look's to be in great condition without any rust. How do you all think it would look on my truck?
