Looks awesome. I've always thought more tire looks better on a truck.

Awesome! And way to keep your promise about these pictures. Could you be a little more specific about sizes? Any rubbing issues? I'm shopping for some black 18s/35s for my leveled truck right now.

Just so you are aware your payload wont increase with the new tires. I thought exaclty the same thing but theirs a massive thread about it on here if ya need more info. What is your payload on your door sticker if ya dont mind me asking. Yours must be pretty close to what mine is.

Looks great. Looks more like a 4x4 now. The newer trucks seem so sit a lot lower than they did in previous years. Great looking trucks all the same though.

Payload is technically less now due to your new tires being heavier...

That's crazy. My wife's Grand Prix GTP has a payload rating close to that. Why are they so low? What is your front and rear axle ratings? That's very scary. 4 good size guys going out to lunch would have it over the "rated" load. I've seen some w/ 4,000 lbs on the rear and some with 3,600 or something crazy low like that. Why such a huge difference? I don't remember what my 03 F-150 was rated at but my current personal truck (gasp 1500 LD chevy) is rated at 3950 front and 4,000 rear and 7000 combined. I think my company expedition is 3750 front and 4,250 rear, 7800 or 7600 total (I think?).
