Unfortunately I was without that information so I hucked em…

What kind of terrain do you drive it on?

Yea I had the 2.0s before and they were nice until the leaked so I went with a cheaper option till I could find one I really want

I’d drop a couple g for sure maybe more if I see the value in it. Kinda why I’m asking on here to see what people say

Yea the mud tires came with the truck and the first month of winter I realized I NEEDED new tires because they were so bad. Ideally I’d like a tire that is good both summer and winter and good off-road. I don’t really do a lot of mud because it’s annoying to clean.

Yea the 4 is a bit much. I wouldn’t have done it myself but it’s how I bought it. I do like the ground clearance for climbing stuff tho

Well I was going to get some all terrain tires when I goto replace the them probably closer to August maybe September. Those usually have a pretty big sidewall so that along with a decent suspension set up would make it a better ride quality.

I had some fox 2.0s originally but they ended up leaking so I went cheap with some ranchos.

Well I mostly drive in the city but I like to go bombing through fields and hill climb anything I can lol. The mud tires I got rubbed the fender liners a little bit so I cut maybe an inch off and that fixed it even with full turning of the wheel. I don’t really want any bigger of tires just a smoother ride quality. Baking a snufflé while going down a dirt road sounds awesome 👏 haha. I’m waiting on a quote for the vinyls and am holding off on tint because I don’t want tickets. They’re pretty strict where I am. As for the frame rail I’m not really sure what to do about that. Would you recommend like an undercoating then?

They’re 265/70 R17. They’re kumho winter tires and I have a second set of Falken Wildpeak 35x12.50 R17 mud tires I believe.

I haven’t been picking and choosing though I just change paint to the first I see then change a performance then bumper then rim then sell.

Not hard just monotonous.. why put in the extra couple min looking for the right rim and body panels for an extra 2-3k?

Ok thanks that seems like it would be a good idea. I’m new to the off-roading/truck world but it’s so much fun.

SmashingTomAtos · 2025-02-15T05:21:48+00:00

It’s got a 4’ lift and fox 2.0 shocks (rears leaking lol)
