I had ordered some American Racing Outlaw II's as well 16x8 with 25mm offset! But the front brake calipers hit the inside face of the the wheel. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> So hard to find wheels that fit the Gen 3 that are not 20"s sheesh.

Anyways the Tires are 285/75-16 on the Stock Wheels. Fitting the spare to the back door is interesting, won't clear the bumper <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/notooth.gif" alt="" /> so for the short term I mounted it using only 2 of the bolts and put the hook throught the center. There will be a perm fix within a week.

Tires are very quit for being a pseudo mud terrain.

I love them so far, now to get them dirty. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/evil.gif" alt="" />

looking good. Was thinking about those for the next tires I get. A little on the pricey side though.

LOL, <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

I do get free flat repair, rotation (but i do that myself) My friend is the manager at the store I got them from. I probably could have saved like $40 going somewhere else but I trust his guys to change my tires and he will tkae care of me if there is ever a problem.

Looks great. I really like that on stock rims too.


I just want to tell you both good luck, and we're all counting on you.

Sweeet looking ride m8! Little worried about your rock sliders tho...if there's any flex surfing off obstacles looks like you might do some damage to your body plastic. But it'll probably be awhile before you hit the Rubicon in that pretty new truck, huh?

BTW, what happened to your grille?

So, you didn't get the warranty? Aren't those tires only available from 4WheelParts? I understand you can talk them way down on their warranty price and it's truly unconditional (except for normal wear).

"Rock Sliders" are actually quite sturdy, especially when compared to the stock side steps, lol. The main part of the slider is 2" square .120 wall attached to where the factory steps attached. Mostly they are there just in case, same for the outriggers, I figured something was better than nothing. I have had one good hit on the passenger side, not a single problem, bend, no nothing just that wonderful "BANG!" of metal meeting rock.

As for the plastic, most of its gone already. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

Pretty New Truck, LOL <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

I have had it almost 4 years now, and over 50k miles, it don't even smell new anymore.

Rubicon? Maybe when it paid off and after a second build up. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

As for the grill, well its been on and off like 10 times in the past 2 months, along with the bumper. I have been working on a new front bumper. And I tripped over it in the garage <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/zombie.gif" alt="" /> and busted a couple of the clips that hold it on, need to pick up a few.
