New tires

[Slick68]

I got new tires a couple weeks ago, but just now getting around to posting the pics. I went with Hankook Ventus ST's in 275/60/17. I think it looks pretty tough considering it's still on stock wheels.







Here's something else I did a while back. When I got the truck, it already had a Flowmaster muffler with split tails and those big, ugly chrome tips. I had the chrome tips cut off and had some turn downs put on. This will do until I have a Magnaflow and 3" single pipe installed.




Debadging pics to follow soon. Also may be removing the overload springs to level out the stance in the near future.

Just put some 2" shackles on it to bring it down in the rear. Nice truck.

I like it dude, I actually like how the exhaust dumps too. I would ditch the stick on chrome and put some Esky handles on it and call it done!

Copycat! Great tires I love mine, and yeah they do look pretty good.

Would that not mess with the pinion angle? I'm getting some helper bags from a friend, so removing the overloads should drop the rear about 1.5" and the bags will be handy for heavy loads.

Thanks. The cool part of the exhaust exits, is they don't show from looking at the rear of the truck. As for the handles, that's what I would rather do, but the wifey likes the the chrome goodies, so they have to stay.

Yup, seeing yours is what helped me decide to go this route. So far, I really like them.

shackles is the most common and least expensive way, short of just removing the overloads, to lower the rears and yes it changes the pinion angle minutely but you get to keep 100% of your load carrying abilites.

Super nice truck, been wanting a crew cab short bed, love them when there slammed... The only thing im not a fan of is the chrome door handles and the chrome fender flares... Sorry.

3 things would make it look like a whole new truck.

1) Remove chrome and badging.
2) Lower/level the truck
3) Cleared/denali headlights/parking lights

Would look super slick and clean.

But its getting there man, keep it up.

Im sure once enough people tell you they dis like the chrome you will remove it... I have seen it happen before lol, someone on the fourm had mudflaps and after about 10 people told him they hated them, he removed them lol.... You have an awesome truck... dont take the hate in a bad way, take it as people brutal honesty and people wanting to help.
