Like I said before. I do like the truck. And the more I look at it the more I like it. As for the wife mine is 5'3" and complains every time she gets in and out of my stock height truck. I apologize if it sounded like I was be cynical about lifting trucks in my previous post. I would like to know just how well those tires perform for you as well. Any other mods. you have planned for the truck in the future? Say like a roll bar and KC daylighters, a bull bar and driving/fog lights, etc.?

I love it, really changed it from a ho-hum every day XLT into something i'd stop and take a second look at.

Personally though i'd agree I would put some paint to match Bushwacker Extend-a-fender flares on it, not a fan of tires sticking out past the fender look. Secondly paint damage would worry me, but i know in your location you don't get much road debris so it might not be as much of a concern.

heck yea, awesome looking truck after the lift and the wheels. my cousin has a 2012 white one (2wd unfortunately), and he also put a 6" RC lift and 35s on 20x9s. very similar look to yours, his stance isn't as wide as yours, he doesn't like very much tire sticking out, i personally love the wide look. i think he wants it a little wider but won't admit it to me lol.

didn't read through every post, any plans for exhaust? now that its higher up, that one pic of the rear end, you can see the stock nasty pipe so much. a nice new pipe and a nice tip would look awesome. i personally like dual pipes, one on each side, at a 45 degree angle right under the bumper.

Looks like a good job. I like the tires but also would like flares to keep side clean. Good luck and nice work.
