    Got a semi-approval from the CEO for wheels/tires. Looking to go 305/65R18 wildpeak with either Blk/machined NV's or maybe gunmetal SR8's. Anyone have pics of such a setup or thoughts on this?

    Also current thinking is 5100's on middle setting or 6112's on second from bottom setting.

    Any input appreciated. Truck is street 95% of the time with beach trips mixed in. Want a nice ride and minimal road noise.

    I have the wildpeaks in that size and is definitely a quiet tire.

    I prefer the scs over the NVs but that's just preference. I think either would look good.

    Well my nv wheels were ordered 5/25. Nothing about being not in stock was conveyed. Checked delivery after a few days and it said 6/5 ship date. Now says 6/15. Maybe i should check the year! Absolutely the last time I order from 4wheel parts.

    Sr8 is just not as good looking but would consider it if they weren't so proud of them. 250 or so PLUS shipping? The methods are 800 shipped including lugs! By the time I add lugs and shipping the SCS wheels are nearly 50% more.

    Tough luck man. I ordered methods from them last Thanksgiving when they had a huge sale. Delivered in a week so I'm not sure what the deal is with yours.

    Truck gets new shoes Friday afternoon!

    Note for Method: offer a single guy or married guy packaging option. single guys will dig the 'race wheels' on the box but married guys might prefer something like 'safety and value'
