    I will. Trying to get away from the street look and get some chrome off. Belows a pic of my new wheels (sticking with 16") and I have BFG 265/70/16 on my stocks for winter wheels and have gave me a good ride all winter but now and thinking of putting them on the new wheels. But on ebay I ran across sets of Terra Grapplers 265/75/16 for $485.00 to my door, or the same seller has 285/75/16 for about $535.00 to my door. But since the new wheels have a 6mm offset (about 4 1/4 backspacing) the 285's might be alittle tight on an turn. So since the nitto 265 price is good I might keep the BFG's on the stocks and go with the 265/75 on the new wheels. I also have the summer wheels 18" aftermarket Chromes with 255/55/18. Three fulls sets,, geeeez what am I doing???..lol

    Anyone with 285/75/16's please help me with any input you have. Ride, any TOD probs, etc..

    My VX is sitting nice and dry in my garage, just waiting for some donuts. That sucks man. Hopefully the part will get fixed soon.

    Keep em lookin good

    I have indy tie rods, they are incredibly beefy, ends are great, love those guys, but they come unpainted. They sat in my garage a few weeks and got some surface rust so I powdercoated them. You might want to do the same to keep them looking pretty, now that you can see them with the lift and all. Now is a better time to do it than later, save you from aligning twice. Just my $0.02
