You forgot one thing... white walls in.

Other then that, looks good! I thought about going with the Duratrac's but sold out on some Treadwright MTR knock offs.

Sorry for posting in the Tech area...it was from my phone and the font was small. Meant to go in chat. As for the 31s w/bb, since my truck is an Urban Assault Vehicle that doesn't see much offroading, I have no problems with rubbing except at full lock. I'm probably going to put some 1/4' spacers to take care of that. That said, the BB was a quick fix and I could see a bigger lift in my future as well.

Thanks for the input

I've heard people say they rival mud tires but I didn't really buy that. What do you think?

Nice looking truck! I might have to go with more lift now. I never had Mud tires, so I don't know how they compare. I was gonna go with the BFG M/T's but saw the duratracs at the shop and they were cheaper, so I went with them

Thanks. Yea, i was going to do the exact same thing. I almost bought KM2's, but these were quite a bit less. So far so good.
