Rogueops-
Trail Grapplers are great. The noise is low. Slight hum at 50mph, but with the Borla the noise disappears. I am very happy with the tires and recommend them. They turn a lot of heads and peipole who are not into trucks are scared of them...lol. I will follow-up with you in regards to wear, once I get some miles on them.

I would go with Mopar because you get the factory warrenty. I purchased a Mopar leveling kit and couldn't be happier.

If you look on the mopar site and read up on it any mopar marts that start with a P* do not have warrenty of any kind, the 4" mopar lift and basicly everything on the mopar accessory catelogue all start with P, the 4" mopar lift for instance is P5155393 i spoke with my dealer at lengh today and although they wont void any warrenties on the truck the lift peices themselves do not come with the truck, and he also said things with the limited lifetime warrenty and i quote"tend to expire 30 minutes or 30 miles out the door which ever come first"

I do know they say the aftermarket parts, such as the lift from superlift are not warrantied by mopar but by the subcontracted company that makes the, aka superlift. But from what I've been told, they will not affect any of the other warranties on the truck since they are termed as Mopar. I'd be interested in hearing other thoughts on this.

Yup, my thoughts exactly. Kinda pissed about it too. I've heard some say they got a mopar leveling kit so I'm going to look into this. I'll let ya know what the dealer tells me.

the leveling kit is for a 2500 not a 1500. I to have been researching the idea of leveling my truck, no lift just level, and $2500 is a little much to get the look. but from what I've read a front leveling kit will not void the warranty on the engine or tranny just the componants involved, the front end. if you go more extreme like 3'' front 1'' back the more you lift the more problems you have like tire wabble at high speed, and things getting stressed. I'm looking for a 1.5 front spacer that will lift the front maybe 2" get the wheels aligned when im done.
