*New tires!!!! 33x10.50 BFG All Terrains, pics inside*

I love 'em! Definitely a power loss over the 31's, but not absolutely horrible, and will be fixed here when I get my 4.88's in Braking power isn't a huge loss either! I'll have to trim a little bit of the pinch weld on the front but no biggie. Can't wait to get my gears and e-locker in and go try it out

One thing I am gunna do now is get new ball joints and tie rods and get a lifetime allignment from firestone or wherever you get one from to make sure they live a long life

On to the pics:

looking good!

Regarding the tire weights, one of my friends simply took a black sharpie to them. Not the best way to do it, but it works and you would never notice them unless someone pointed them out.

Looks good! I'd get the white inside though, after a couple times offroad the pretty white letters will turn brown
