looks awesome. Can you get some bright pics from the rear and front so I can see how wide they really are. So if i get a 2 inch spacer in the front... would it rub at all?

Thanks for the compliment! I've got my camera charging now so as soon as it is charged I will take somre more pics.

I'm not very familiar with the spacers. I will do some checking and see what I can find. I'm sure someone here would be able to help.

If I could find some 33x 12's I would feel more confortable I think. those nitto's are damn wide to say the least

You are correct about that. Good luck finding that tire for an 18" rim. That was the trouble I had. Toyo may have something to fit it.

Those were the tires the guys here tried to get me to get. They really aren't much bigger than the factory tire. I almost convincedmyself to get a set of the BFG's but decided to get the Nitto's instead. I don't regret the decision.

I put the Nitto up against the BFG's at the shop and you could tell a world of difference.

The BFG's were the ones my dad was considering. I told him they had some there and he went by and looked at them and really likes them. They are significantly wider than factory tires. However, there not but about 1/2" taller. That's in comparison to my old Goodyear's

That's really interesting about toyo and nitto. I'm going to have to look into that. I was considering the Toyos before I purchased the Nittos. Do you get the rub on and off road? I'm worried mine may rub slightly if I'm ever off road too much.

As far as the DVD player is concerned, I love it. I'm getting ready to go out of town this weekend and I will have some entertainment for the trip. I mean I won't be watching anything while I'm driving of course. I paid just over $1300 for mine. The reason I went with Clarion is becuase it was the only one I found that directly interfaced with my IPod. This way I don't have to run my IPod through an FM Transmitter and I can brwose songs through the touch screen. I'm not very familiar with Sony products but I do have some friends that have Pioneers and love them.

Good Luck and if you need some help installing let me know!
