    wilco has some nice options for sure. with the bed rail mount you can install that spare there only when you need it vs the full tailgate replacement. also price...
    let's say you go on a trip that needs 2 spares, it's easier to mount I would say

    So how are you liking the MB wheels? I was curious about it a year ago when I was looking at wheels. The deal is just too good to not want, especially on my budget. Would love your feedback. Should I go for it or just wait?

    One negative is that the fake bead lock bolts stick out and seem to be plastic. I'm slowly sheering them off when I got out on the trail. Otherwise they've been perfect. I would buy them again.

    Well I think I finally saw your truck around town. Looked like you sitting at a light on Concannon at Arroyo Saturday about 11:30am passed you going the other way. Truck was looking good.
