    Everything. Literally.
    So my lift kit came in today. 3” boss from toytec.
    I want to install it, but I haven’t picked up my tires yet, might be a few weeks before I can. Right now I’m running 285 55 20s.

    Is my ride going to look stupid AF if I install the kit wirh that size tires? All I have right now is a 2/1 level kit and I feel like It already looks a little off with the 285s.

    If anyone happens to have a 3” on tires this size, I’d appreciate a pic before I install it and instantly regret it.

    Thanks.

    A little of this and a little of that.
    I’ve got a 3.5” lift in the front and I’m running 275/65/18’s. I don’t think it looks funny. I do have spiderTrax on though.

    That's about 32.3" It won't look stupid AF, but sure would look a lot better with something near 35's.

    I have 33's on my 3/1. check out my build.

    275/70r18 tires. They do look too small but not stupid AF. They get the job done until it's time for new tires then i'm bumping up to 295/70.

    I ran stock (275/65/18) with 3.5 inch OME lift for about 7 months before upsizing the tires. I don't think sizewise, it looks bad. Perhaps the aggressiveness of the tires has more to do with the looks than the size.

    Yeah I you might be right about the aggressive look vs. the size.
    Your truck looked good for sure.

    Anybody here know anything about Patriot tires? I found a set of 4, 35 12.5 20 for about 900.
    Best prices I’ve been able to find, by far.

    Wasn't that the tire brand the Diesel Brothers had made for them?

    The tires look awesome on the show but I don't know anyone that has a set. Is the $900 set new or used tires? That could be a killer deal if they're new.

    Don't know much about it, but I remember thinking at the time... There's no way in hell I'm putting those tires on my truck. :notsure: Seemed like they just met up with some random tire maker from China and slapped their name on it. I think I'd rather pay a couple hundred more and get a reputable brand.

    Honestly, you can't go wrong with toyo, nitto, or Cooper. IMO.
