That really looks good. I like the color of truck with the rims good job picking. I have 325-50-r22 on my truck and tires are very expensive because not that many manufacturers make them . I'm running toyo open country ll on mine. They sure look good though.

Thanks everyone. Im very very happy with the truck. Ive had duramax's always until this truck just hope this one holds up like the chevys do. Ive got a 54" light bar and a few other little things left to do. Need the flares bad but no one has them yet.

1634Joe thank you. Yes i agree the tires are ridiculous. I got the new nitto hybrids. I think they're called Ridge Grapplers. So far they are great. A little rougher than stock on the potholes and stuff but they handle sooo much better. Dont know if its because they are 12 ply or the offset of the wheels but handles great now.

Did you tint your windows? What did you use?

Looks pretty good, although I would have gone with 20's over 22's. I'm weird though, I like tires.

How wide are your wheels? Did you have to do any trimming to keep them from rubbing at full lock?

Yes the windows are tinted. They are @20% with ceramic tint. First time trying the ceramic and it does make a marked difference but i dont think its very clear and damn its expensive. Like 300 to do all with windshield and want another 150 to do the sunroof.

The wheels are 22x10 and they barely rubbed at full lock and what they were rubbing is the plastic rock guard on the bottom of the fender so i removed those and used a rubber mallot to bend the bottom of the fender in a touch. once i level my front ill be able to put them back on well as long as they work with the bushwacker flares.

I did 3M Crystalline on the windshield, it was $180 alone. It is super clear and it does block the heat very well. I would have done all my windows with it but that would have cost close to $800 (including the sunroof). I did my two front side windows with dyed tint at 35. Your truck looks nice!
