6K miles now. Dealer re-checked torque today during tire rotation, no charge :).
One thing I’ve noticed, is that you can see the snow and slush getting flung forward outside the wheel wells.

That's what happens when your tires stick out past your fender flares

Mud guards only work for what gets flung back I’d think. What gets thrown forward is released somewhere on top of the tire.

Yep. I have -12 offset wheels with Husky Mud Guards and I still get mud flung onto the side of my truck. It's worth it for me, because I like the aggressive stance.

Never retreat, always push forward.
