Default New 295/70/17 Nittos!

Just got my new tires and rims yesterday, want to hear what you guys have to say about them. The tires are 295/70/17 Nitto Trail Grapplers on 17x9 V Tec Raptors.

I am getting the dents taken out of my rear bumper tomorrow along with sand blasting prep for powdercoat + ordered new black plastic step piece.

Tires are sweet! Wheels, well lets just say I don't think very highly of black wheels. Just my .02 worth though. I know plenty of folks love them.

I want the same setup except with the moto metal 951's. Do they rub at all? I assume you just have the front end leveled? If anyone else is interested in some stock 20's with the Wrangler HP's give me a holler. They have around 29000 miles on them. No blemishes on the wheels.

Oh I forgot something. MORE PICS PLEASE?! Your truck looks great

Love the tires, the wheels look really nice, but I like a wheel with a negative offset and a backspacing to throw the tires outside the wheel well a bit. I really like an aggressive stance, myself...

Tires are great! I am thinking about putting a very small spacer on them to make them stick out just a tad more, not much though. Road noise isnt too bad, around 40 mph they start to really hum. Will post more pictures once bumpers get done!

black wheels look good on your truck's color...what height is your level?

3 inch rear lift with torsion bar crank on front. Nothing too crazy, the truck has the blocked stripes along the side (Satin black) and a big square on front hood. Trying to get a satin black/blue look going on. After bumpers get done I am looking into getting a bull bar. I want to make it stand more agressive, any tips anyone? and thanks for the comments!
