      Thank you. She's pretty sweet and we get a lot of looks for sure. Very Blessed to have it for sure.

      Do you mind me asking how much lift you have? What size wheels and tires? I have 3"/2" lift. I've been reading for days trying to figure out how much tire I can get under mine without cutting anything. The more I read the more confused I get. The offset really puzzles me. Again, super sweet ride you have. I'm jealous lol.

      @Munk

      Im running a 7" Rough Country lift.

      20" wheels.

      Offset is the SAME AS STOCK WHEELS

      Tires are 37 X 12.5 R20 Nitto Terra Grapplers

      This all BARLEY FIT UNDER A STOCK BUMPER. It will RUB on occasion with a stock bumper.

      My front bumper is a ICI Magnum which the tires do clear.

      I AM NOW HAVING TO GO WITH 4:88 GEARS (FRONT AND REAR BECAUSE I AM 4X4) GOING UP TO THE 37' TIRES

      IF YOU WANT TO GO WIDER ON TIRES YOU ARE GOING TO START JACKING WITH THE WHELL OFFSET WHICH IN TURNS WEARS OUT YOUR FRONT END AND BEARINGS FASTER. YOU WILL ALSO HAVE TO START CUTTING ON THE FRONT BODY MOUNTS OF TRUCK GOING WITH WIDER TIRES

      I went with TALLER TIRES< NOT WIDER and have not had to cut on the truck.

      WIDER TIRES = CUTTING ON TRUCK

      THESE 12.5'S STILL LOOK PRETTY MEATY FROM THE FRONT AND FROM BEHIND

      TALLER LOOKS EVEN BETTER FROM THE SIDE

      I WENT WITH TALL SKINNIER TRIES VS WIDER

      SAVES YOUR FRONT END AND YOU DONT HAVE TO CUT ANYTHING

      MY SET UP IS FOR PRIMARILY HIGHWAY DRIVING

      That's good to know. 95% of my driving will be highway. I definitely don't want to cut anything or cause premature part wear. I'm by no means a rich man and don't want to buy something that won't fit or regret later. I was thinking of getting some Bushwhacker flares and go with 33x12.5 tire. Geez it's frustrating with all the possibilities.

      Are you running the stock suspension? I love your front bumper but I've had people tell me that the extra weight will wear ball joints. Still would love to have one!
