Default Ordered XD Spy wheels w/ 35" Nitto Trail Grapplers - Buh Bye 24s

well i had a nice curb check last weekend.. so i decided it was time to get rid of the 24s...

so i just ordered (and verified they had in stock) a new wheel/tire combo and i hope they get it out today so i get it in time for the weekend.

I ordered a set of 20 inch xd spy wheels with 35" nitto trail grapplers

here is a pic of the wheel and size combo.. im not sure if the tires are the trail grapplers so i will include a pic of them also..

stay tuned.. when i raise it back up ill let you guys know of any issues.

here is the wheels mounted on a ferd lol





and here is the tires i ordered (35 inch)

im not in the market for tires just yet but did some reading one day and like the way they look and it does have good reviews, i will be waiting for pics and reviews

what kind of lift are u going with to fit them?
i myself prefer to keep the stock rims

It will good either down or up. You have a sweet truck. And no worries about mileage with the 3.55's. I am runnning a 34.5 inch tall tire and getting as good of mileage as anyone on here. The trail grapplers measure in at 35.04 so very close.

i have 3.92s w/the lsd... and i dont think the new set up will cause me much worse gas mileage than the heavy *** 24s i been running over a year. the new set should actually be easier on the brakes

my wheel have about 1 inch of rash because of it.. nothing was bent.

but that event and bottoming out going 15 mph over speed bumps with costco stuff in the back helped me decide to raise it back up.

rizam... i just looked up the armour wheel... and im not a fan of em honestly. i think you should get the spys, deisels (with chrome ring) or the addicts if your wanting to stay with the XD line. Black rhino makes some nice wheels also but no one has them in stock for me to go check out before i order

what lift you get with what size tires? ..cant wait to see pics
