Yeah they do! And those BFG muds are almost 2" taller than the all terrains we took off.

Oh, and before you ask Mike.....No, I don't have your old rims mounted up yet. Ford changed the thread pitch on the lug nuts between 01 and 03 so I had to order a new set. They'll be here Thursday, so I'll have them on the truck by this weekend.

Thanks for the compliments Andy, I drove by your house earlier, but I guess you were already off for work.

Sucks you had to buy to lug nuts, how did your rims clean up? Can't wait to see what they look like on your truck.

Joe, I'll try and post some pics, I'm not real computer savy, but I'll give it a try.

Not a big deal really. I found a set on ebay exactly like the ones we put on your truck for $34 shipped........which is good because they were about the only M14x2.0 I could find. Just for future reference, your lug nuts are M14x1.5

They are cleaning up pretty well.....but it's taking multiple coats of polish and a bunch of elbow grease. Two of them will glow in the dark.....I'm just getting started on the other two. Lugs will be here tomorrow, so hopefully I'll get them on before dark. I'll keep you informed.
