New tires and rims

Just TSL's with mickey thompson simulated bead lock....they ordered the regular classic 2's but they sent the simulated bead locks and the tire guy told them to eat the extra cost for the bead rims because he wasn't losing a customer....so i got them at no extra $30 a rim!

Those look great! Always great to get a good 'buy' as well!

Sweet man, those are some mean lookin 31's. I was looking at 31x10.5s did you have to make any adjustments to steering stops or put in spacers for the wider tires? Also wondering if you have a lift.

No adjustments....torsion bars are cranked a little but not maxed. No lift either...31X11.50's and the only trouble I had was the front valance on the drivers side was rubbing but it was from when the previous owner had it pushed back and I tweaked it a little and no rubbing now

Noise...... It sounds like a meaty 4 wheel drive now! A little vibration too...but as long as you are used to mud slinging tires then you learn to accept the noise
