Wow, he's right! Good eye. I also ask the question, why different treads?

Thanks guys, it's a Skyjacker leveling kit.


I was given a new pair of BFG AT (on the back) and I am waiting for them (the BFGs) to go on sale locally. In the meantime I threw some Dunlops on the front.

Can't seem to find the BFG's for less than 230 per installed. I'm a weird dude and hate paying full price.

Looks really good, I need to do that to my 97. I am currently running 315s without any lift and they rub when turning really sharp. Where did you get the kit, Ebay? I live in Wyoming and we do not have much for stores(Napa, Checker, and such).
