Default Finally got the 285's installed :-)

Well a couple weeks back I picked up a set of (5) wheels and tires off of Craigslist. The tires were stock 286 Duelers and I'm really happy with my purchase. The tires seem to ride smoother than my stock 265 Goodyears and bumps seem to rattle less with the new tires. I'm very happy so far

It's amazing how just one additional inch of diameter makes these trucks look so much better.

I know! I have had two buddies ask me how much the lift kit cost I put on over the weekend! I said it was the same height as it was last week.

yea looks great with the 285's, sometimes the larger sizes look to large without and offical lift.

I tweaked them back in September when I got it. My driveway runs down hill also so that may make it look a little front end high. It's a blast to drive!
