20" x 10" Fuel Lethal Wheels - 24mm offset
35" x 12.5" x 20" Nitto Ridge Grapplers
I wanted Pocket Style Fender Flares, so i was looking for a 2" or so, outside the stock wheel wells. It turned out perfect.

In the specific size I wanted, the F / 12 rating and the max load rating is about as good as you are going to do, if you want a custom setup, but still high specs for towing. Toyo are great tires too. These are just a better bang for the buck. I think the tread pattern on the Nitto Grapplers are better for roads and towing than the aggressive pattern on the Toyo.

Well guys, this is how it turned out. Extremely happy with the semi-finished product. Probably should have done it all at once but now its time to for Fox 2.0's on all 4 corners and the fox stabilizer. What do you think?

Love it! Are the wheels lug or hub centric? Any vibration issues?

Very nice truck. I was torn between those wheels and a different set.

So far no vibration issues. Honestly, the only complaint I have right now is the steering feels a little loose every so often. I just ordered all new Fox 2.0's and the Fox ATS stabilizer so that should tighten things up a bit. Honestly, I'm not sure if the wheels are hub or lug centric. I know the difference but not sure how to tell for a specific wheel. I know these are drilled for my specific bolt pattern.

Truck looks good. Let me know what that stabilizer does for the steering. I've been considering an aftermarket stabilizer as I have the same complaint about the steering.

I just installed the Fox ATS SS today but not much drive time on it yet. And have the Fox 2" smooth bodies all 4 corners. Shocks made a really noticeable difference IMHO. All from Stage3 Motorsports.
No lift or level though. When spotting placement on the Fox ATS, be sure to have someone hold the steering wheel against the stop to get the right placement for the drag link clamp.

Did you install the single or the double stabilizer?

Nice looking setup. What effective ratio do you think the 37s bring the 4.30 down to?

The truck really looks great! Is that setup in the pictures without any type of level? Or did you end up ordering with the wheels/tires?

Im looking to do something similar, and see what the plow prep can do without actually installing a kit. Any rub?
