Thank you for the terrific feedback and the AWESOME wheel idea... I WILL shoot you some pics once complete. I've looked at 100's of wheels and the one you posted of the Fuel wheels I had not seen. But those Fuel Anza wheels were the nicest I had ever come across (except the HRH classic slotted mag - discontinued). It'll be probably be a month or so, they still haven't shipped my lift kit, and Joe Darlington just shipped my Diff drop and cross-member. OK on the tire size and cutting. I will go with the 33.8X12.5R17's! Have you or anyone have any feedback regarding the "gearing"? IF I run 33.8" tires will I be ok with the stock (4.30:1) gears?? I found out that the best deal I could get on the Nitto Mud Grappler Extreme Terrain is at Walmart OR Simpletire.com
