There ON !!!

Got the new tires on today (305/70/16's) here are a few shots. Got The KC's in there as well. Gonna have to shim the front bumper a touch. Im ok on the street, but im afraid they may rub if i flex it any. The link at the bottom is to some additional photos (slide show), including shots of how close they are to the front bumper. Oh yeah, I took the lug nut covers off also, so Im showin my nuts now as well...LOL

They look very nice! are they noisy going down the road?

By the way just a word of advice if you are going to run with your nuts showing LOL I would get some lug caps the nuts tend to seize on the rim if they are exposed like that I have had it happen to me a couple of times now to the point that I ruined the rim trying to get them off

But man that looks nice you got a nice truck there!

no roar, maybe a touch of high pitch whine. they are quieter ( and ride smoother) than the ones i removed.
