Thank you. I like them too
Well, an update that is worthy of some pics for a change.
I decided on the Falkens. I know that they are not the best tire out there but for the truck size they are the best tire for me right now. Ordered these up a few weeks ago and got them mounted up this afternoon.
Giddy like a little kid about this point, they look great.
Typical wheel and tire install tools at my house.
Also add to that BFH, SFH, dolly and a couple of pieces of pipe just for good measure.
Just one side done, still needs to finish rolling and pulling the fenders at this point but wanted to see it in the sun.
So with that, I got the other side done. Cut the lips on the rear openings and rolled them in as far as I could. I might need to pull the bedsides out just a touch to clear the tire at full bump, but it has a bit of room in there now.
I pulled the front fenders as far as I could at that point. It is very subtle and looks very clean and nice.
Here is what she looks like, first trip around the neighborhood.
Good shot of the wheel here
All in all its been a ton of work to get them on there but I am super happy and the truck looks mean, just like I wanted it to.
Keep it clean and in one piece till Goodguys next weekend, then back to the track.
Keep on truckin!!!
Sean
