Why the change in tires
I think the stock tires on the 22" wheels made the truck look a little weak, i wanted a more aggressive look to match the huge body of the truck and also for better performance driving in snow or offroad.

I like the choice in tires, looks great. Notice any changes to economy? Did you level the truck or is the suspension un touched?

Two questions. 1 Do you have the bed divider that fits into the utility rails. It has its own track which sits above the rails. What is distance from bottom of clamp to top of utility rail? 2 what are the 4 discolored squares up near the rear window on the first panel?

What offset did you choose?

I do not had a bed divider, the 4 patches or stickers are to protect it when you fold the sections onto itself.

I think the e oniony took a slight hit, stock air suspension on the truck
 
The 4 stickers on the cover towards the cab, can these be removed? I only see them on pictures half the time. If guys have removed them have you noticed any problems?

These are rub protection for when the cover is folded open and you're running down the road. You will certainly rub through the powdercoat without them with time and an open cover.
 
How are you liking the Lomax so far? Waterproof or weatherproof?

Really liking my Lomax. We just went through a patch of storms here in SoCal over 4-5 days of near constant rain and once I put in the stake covers, I had no leakage whatsoever. Truck is parked on a little bit of an incline (see profile pic) as well as being under that tree so it did get a fair bit of water on it. I mounted my rails flush with the bed liner so once the top went on, everything sealed well including the rear gate.
 
Sounds great, thanks for the feedback.
 
Notice any ride issues with the new tires? I put Terra Grapplers on my 22" rims and leveled it and my ride is noticeably rougher. Thanks

I’m looking to put 22x10 +32 offset wheels on my truck. Tires are 305/45/22. Calculations are that the wheel and tire will sit approx. 1/4” closer to suspension,etc. Q: Do you know if there is enough room behind your wheel/tire setup to allow for that 1/4” that I will need for my wheel/tire setup? I would rather for my application have my wheel/tire set sit 3/4” closer to the fender than 1/4” further out than your wheel/tires sits. If anyone else knows the clearance allowed behind a 33x12.50 +19 offset using the OEM 9” rim like SMS Limited...please feel free to chime in.
Thanx in advance
