Is that just a 2.5" level kit on the truck? If so, any rubbing issues? These are the tire size I will be going with as soon as funds provide...

No, I have a 4" CST spindle lift in the front and a 1" in the rear. I did have to cut the plastic wind dam on the corners, I am sure it will be close but I understand what you want to do will work. I may add a inches or so along the way but will have to see.

i've been lookin at the trail grapps as my next tire. they always looked more aggressive in the pictures than they do on a real truck. they look good though. def not a true M/T, yet more aggressive than an A/T

It's the trend now, used to be if you wanted a hybrid A/T-M/T your only choice was a Cepek FCII. Now everyone is starting to offer one. The Trail Grappler, Interco M-16, Pro Comp Xtreme A/T, etc. are all attempts to mix the best traits of both types of tread patterns...

Will have to see how they do have a real nice meaty look and feel, but only been riding around town so do not have much to say yet. But your right Hammer it is the trend now plus lets face it, it is all about supply and demand.
