Default My 08 with new Definity Dakota tires

Just got some new Definity Dakota A/T's from Pep boys...not a bad deal, 4 tires, mount, balance with road hazard warranty for a tad under 500.

I went with 265/70/16's, so far so good, seem to ride really well.

they are 265/70/16, no rub, looks to be plenty of clearance. They are on an 08 SLT V-8 4 x 4, with no lift or leveling kit. There is one point of mild steer where they only clear the back well at the point by about 3/4 of an inch, so I think this is pretty much max for my truck without atleast a leveling kit.

Thanks!! Going to do some bed stripes and nerfs.. and I am trying to decide if I want to chrome the door handles or not. And its definately going to get flowmaster 40 duals, but I havent decided if I am coming out under the bumper, behind the rear wheels, or in front of the rear wheels.

I've heard some pretty good reviews on those tires. They look good, and for under $500, nice deal!

I'm not a fan of the stick on chrome door handles, I wish they would have come body colored to begin with. Your truck does looks good.
