I know this whole thread has been full of spelling errors, but I rely to much on autocorrect, and it's so bad on my phone from misspelling stuff wrong so much i have seen it autocorrect something i spelled correctly into the normal way i spell it wrong 😂😂😂 anyway, here is pics of the wheels.

Nope, they are Leo lion mt. Theyre pretty aggressive, load range e. I was sceptical of ordering them but every review I read was positive. I figured for as little as I actually drive the truck id give em a go. They wound uo being 190 a tire. Verses bfg at 260 and the nittos at 310 a tire. I guess they are imported into Florida and sold online. There is also a tire called kanati, they have both a at and a mt, the at looks like the goodyear wrangler dura-trac and cant remember what the mt was. I talked to some tire guys and they are basically re branded goodyears sold only online. If you have a way to mount them its a lot cheaper.

Thanks I love the way the look on there

 So thus week i have gotten all my interior trim installed, the headliner installed, and new pitman arm. I also swapped my shift tower over to a short tower for easier shifting

As far as the wheels and tires go, these things are kinda disapointing in the feedback department. They are way too quiet for my liking. The wrangler duratracs on my serria are louder. But they do handle and ride real good

Next week im wanting to get the new gauges in

Looking good!

I can't believe those tires are 'quiet' !!! :o

So do you like road noise? I guess some do.

Those wheels and tires definitely give the truck a more aggressive look.
I like to hear my tires a bit as well. My limits are tsl boggers.. listening to those at interstate speeds to get to the next puddle changes a man...

Guess I'm the opposite, at an older age, I like quiet...The Truck is noisy enough without adding road noise... 8)

 I do like some noise, I found out if you leave the backwoods tar and chip roads and find some nice city blacktop the hum a little. They are a little louder than bfg am terrains. Kinda. Disappointing honestly.


Im going to buy a dash pad this week for her, what brand and where do y'all recomend. I want something that fits good and looks good. And i want it to be built like the factory one so i buy one and im done

It's difficult to know just how much you don't know until you know it.
In other words... if people learn by making mistakes, by now I should know just about everything!!!

So, the email just came through, and it said that the order would take 25 business days to be processed, is that really how long it takes or is that just a bloated timeline due to covid? Anyway, it's ordered at least 😂😂😂

Especially right now, shipping is taking forever! I just got all the patch panels for my son's build from Chris ( this site) and the quality is awesome. Definitely not cheap thin imported metal stampings.

I didnt look all that hard, but im guessing that you can buy headliners for the crew cabs as well. Mine was salvageable and the local upholstry shop only wanted 200 bucks to re do mine and reinforce it. I looked high and low for those things though.
