Did you need to get new lug nuts for the Fuel wheels or do the stock ones fit? Thanks.
Yes, new lug nuts. We have a local tire shop that has great prices so he charged me $900 for mounting, balancing, and new lug nuts, installed on rig out the door.

Yea with some 305/40/22 tires.
Your setup is my fav here so far. Really diggin the look. Do you by any chance have any from behind/up front pics where I can see how far and in the wheel/tires stick in and out? Also, you mentioned installing a 2.5" leveling kit on your truck. Did that change the ride quality any? I love the way my truck rides now--would hate to change that.

It sticks out quite a bit. I do no off-roading so these street tires work best for me. The level is only a simple spacer and it doesn’t affect the comfort of the drive or handling. IMO. Doowork has a YouTube channel with videos on the same set up. He has the TIS off-road wheels which are nice but should be wrapped with terrain tires as the wheel literally says tis off road.

Thanks for the update Hawaii's Finest! Great looking truck. I might be getting started on my upgrades something within the coming month or so. I'm thinking I might copy your wheel set, leveling kit, but I might go with some Toyo Proxes. I've never had these tires on any of my vehicles--good review though from what I've found so far. Quick questions about the leveling kit for you. You had a 2.5" leveling kit installed from what I can see. Does that make the front end higher than the back end? Would a 2" leveling kit work with your wheel/tire combination?

I am not sure if this 22x12 set up will work with the 2” spacer. I would expect some rubbing. Currently At full turn it is really close. I have only seen 20’s installed with the 2” spacer. Nitro 420 is a nice thread design

Readylift SST with 20x9 Fuel Sledge and Nitto 35x25.5 Ridge Grapplers.

It looks so good in person.
How are you liking the Readylift? All my local install guys bash it, say their customers are upset with the stiffness and ride quality. I want it BAD but not if it's as terrible as they say.

Thanks for the info. How is your ride quality with the added leveling kit? That’s the same kit I’m interested in.

I would say rides exactly like stock i love it, I found the tires to be noisier than stock ones as they are more aggressive but still acceptable to me.

Good to know. I really want to find some wheels that work with the stock tires. I love the wheels you chose.

ARE YOU KIDDING? I run 38 psi - it's like riding on cloud. Comparing to my last tuck was a 2008 3/4 ton Chevy. Also rides better then my wife's 2017 Jeep Limited and my 2017 ZL1. It's not as supple as when I got it but I'm guessing the ride is better the 90% of 4x4's out there. The angles of the lift aren't bad either.

Great looking ride. Do you have a shot looking down the nose to see how much the tires stick out? Do you rub with that set up and if so did you trim anything? Looking to do something similar with same wheels/tires on my white ram rebel. Any info is appreciated.
