New Michelin LTX AT2 275/65/18 with pics

Just replaced my 17" chrome clad stock XLT wheels with BFG 285/70/17 TA/KO's with 18" FX4 aluminum wheel with Michelin LTX AT2 275/65/18

What I noticed right away:
-the pull to the right that I've had as long as I can remember is gone (even after wheel alignments)
- rides like a luxury car (well almost)
- no more wheel nibble 65mph thru 7x mph (even after wheel balancing)
- handling is much improved, everything feels tighter
- I love my truck again
