Installed>>>>2.5 AS and 285/75/18 Toyo AT

Got my 2.5 AS level kit in the mail yesterday and 285/75/18 Toyo Open Country AT's mounted on my 18x9/5.5 w/bs ballastic jesters today!!! I got lucky and my buddy that works at 4 wheel parts was in the shop today finishing up a truck so he let me bring my truck up there and install my level kit on a lift(was so easy,LOL!) and mount and balance my tires.He also was nice enough to spend an hour aligning it too.Man does it drive straight!!Also, I want to add that when I bought my wheels off craigslist,I was not aware of the backspacing.When I found out they were 5.5 I got a little scared.Thats why I went with the less aggressive tread on the AT(plus I don't do any HEAVY wheeling).To my suprise we didn't have to trim anything! I went foward's and backwards lock to lock,went over some speed bumps,and did a couple uturns and nada!!! Also scored a westin bullbar off craigslist yesterday for $80!!! Without further adieu.......

before


after (sorry, truck is dirty and it's raining)

Looks good! On the fence w/ the Toyo AT's. How are they? I'm looking at the same size & think the MT's are overkill for my needs (everyday driver w/ some trips to the lake, no heavy duty offloading).
