I want to go 37x13.50 trying to figure out my options. I'd like to do 17s or 18s. A few 17x8.5's I like are 4.75 backspacing...

Thinking I'm either going to do a 3.5" level or 4" radius arm kit.
No rubbing at all. I do have a 2WD lower valance, not sure if that helps any.

Finally got some photos of the new lights installed. It was getting dark out, so the image quality isn't the greatest.. Oh, and ignore the filthy truck, lol.

I love the lights! Can you run them without being flashed?

Looks great man. Do you know if both colors can be on while driving without blinding oncoming traffic? Or are they too bright for normal driving use.

If I run just the white pair with the headlights, people are less likely to flash me because I think they just assume they're stock. But when I run only the amber fogs, or both the amber and white fogs with the headlights, I'll get every single person flashing me. Hell sometimes even people on the OTHER side of the highway lol.

I will say this, a single pair of the white lights in place of the factory fog's makes a HUGE difference in the amount of light that's cast out in front of the truck.

Wow. That is one gorgeous truck. Honestly, this could've sealed it for me that I'm buying a Super Duty

20 inch machined wheels

Curious if you still have the 20 inch machined wheels and want to part with them? Would be interested if shipping isn’t outrageous. Purchased a 2017 hold over and as you’d likely suspect didn’t get much choice on package option. It has the chrome package and the PVD wheels are too much bling for me. They are nice, for sure, but I like to tone things down a bit. Let me know if you’re interested in selling the wheels if you still have them. Thanks!

there is no comparison. He is running the "pro's" which are 4900 lumens at 40 watts EACH pod. My "sport" versions are half that and easily outshine the OEM fogs.

I sold my stock wheels w/ the 37's a few months ago. This place (Texas Truck Tire) located in Houston is where I bought my factory wheels and tires. They have a ton of oem take offs that are practically new, check out their ebay store to see their inventory, I believe they ship and are reasonably priced.

What honda250xtitan said is correct. The BD pro's are probably 3x's brighter (at least) than the factory HEAD LIGHTS.. lol. Sometimes I feel bad for the oncoming traffic.

I need to get some good pictures of the lighting, I just keep forgetting.
