Looks great. You'll have to give us a review on those tires after a couple of weeks on them. Looking for new winters as well.

i would have liked to go with a bigger rims aswell. but unfortunately the funds wouldnt allow me to. i was stretching the bank account just buying these. its hard being a 20 year old with a nice truck. i gotta work my a$$ off 50 hrs a week to afford it.

there is no way to turn off the chime if memory serves me correct. i know alot of guys have taken all the sensors and put the inside a lawn mower tire and pumped it up to pressure and stuck it in the tool box. to trick the computer. but you obviously are keeping your other tires, so idk what your gonna do.. btw SICK TRUCK i love black wheels.

yeah i do plan on running them. thanks for the compliment.
future mods include led breaklight bar, tints to match the rear windows, leveling kit, and rear blocks. i think. haha. oh and maybe a cold air intake. ive only had the truck for 8 months or so and im only 20 so mods are gunna have to come over time.
i currently have 8000k hid fog lights and head lights,avs window vents,debaged although in the process of blacking out and replacing the badges, the rims and tires now, a class 3 draw tie hitch, line-x bed liner and a bakflip g2 tonneau cover.
