Default 35's and new rims

Well guys I finally pulled the trigger and bought some new rubber and some new rims. After running the pole last month the winner was the Fuel Throttle, however there is like a 4 month waiting period, so I opted for these instead of waiting. Rims are American Eagle Eagle allow series 079, and the tires are Nitto trail grapplers. Pictures are at the link below..

Those look terrible! You should just take them off...put ure stockers back on...then send them to me I will get take them off ure hands. Great choices made! I am envious. How do you like the tires so far? Good deal on them?

Love the ride, it is much smoother over bumps just because I went with a 18" rim now, so there is more rubber between the top of the tire and the rim. But I will admit it takes a little getting use to such a big tire. You do feel a little vibration at very slow speeds, like under 10mph, from the lugs on the tires but it is a very very little bit, just something you gotta get used to with trail tires. They are a bit heavier than the 20" stock set up that is for sure, and you feel that on excelleration from a dead stop.
The price was great, couldn't beat it anywhere. If any one is interested I can supply you with a link, phone, number and a Id # to get a lot better deal.

Looks good man...but im thinking with the tread and the wheels that its so much going on now.....maybe debadge it and take of the dodge sticker on the door. I think that would bring more balance if you know what i mean.

I have the trail grapplers on my truck but in 33s, yours look like they have a more agressive sidewall then mine. Did they change the style? I have found out that these tires wear pretty quickly. Love the ride tho, they are pretty quiet but still have some hum
