WooHoo, Finally got my new tires. I decided to go with the 35" on stock rims. It sure looks better. The ride is a little more stiff but nothing major, and no noise complains at all so far.
My Pioneer Z2 GPS system arrived and I'm giving the insall a shot on Saturday.

Did you make any suspension upgrades to accomodate the larger tire size? Any rubbing??

The only adjustments I made was when I first got the truck I gave the torsion bars 2 1/2 turns to level the front. After we put the tires on 4 of us bounced the truck around as much as possible and no rubbing, I can't imagine what everyone looking on from the showroom was thnking about us! I spent most of the rest of the evening trying to get something to hit or rub and nothing.

The only time that it will rub is when you take a sharp turn the wheel will rub on the sway bar, after a week or so have a look at the sway bar and you will see how nicely polished it will be.

35s do look pretty awesome, but when I burn up these 33 Deulers, I'm gonna stick with 33s, and go wider and more agressive.  Haven't decided with what, but I got plenty of time.

Bonzaiii, looks great.............Kudos!

Tires look good on the rims too.  Are they 315.75.16's ?? Where did you end up getting them?  I haven't found anywhere cheaper than TIRERACK.com so hopefully you'll point me in a better direction for tires.

How did you make out with your pioneer install by the way...I was sick the last 2 days and haven't been on.

Thanks!
