    I think the ride is better in the ram. Most likely due to the coil springs in the rear as opposed to leaf springs. However, the seats and overall quality are better in the Sierra. I always feel composed and secure when in my Sierra. I didn't always have that feeling in the ram. I don't regret getting rid of the ram, and I don't regret getting this Sierra at all. Josh

    For what it's worth, I've had a few different lifts/levels. Nothing compares to the quality of my current BDS kit. That's from my drivers seat POV, and from my mechanic who has installed all of the following: Rough country level on my 2008 Silverado Rough country lift on my 2012 Silverado Bilstein level on my 2014 ram Fox level on my 2015 Sierra BDS on my current truck, a 2015 Sierra Josh

    Just got the 4" BDS installed. I went with 18x9 Fuel Cleaver -12 offset wheels and 305/65/18 BFG KO2's. I only have about 25 miles on it so far, but I'll report my opinions soon enough.

    They stick out a bit right now. Between the BDS kit pushing the track width, the aggressive offset of the wheels, and the 305 tires, I'd say it's about 2-2.5" at least in the front. I plan on putting some fender flares on on Monday. Mostly because I don't want to destroy my paint. No spacers. I'm not a fan of them at all. I will try and take those pictures you want tomorrow. It's too dark out right now Josh

    Spyder Auto and Recon make an almost identical pair. Mine are spyder. If you do decide to order them, make sure you choose the right one because there's a version to replace the SLE and then one to replace the SLT version. Josh

    Excellent, thanks for checking. Do you have any rubbing issues? Specifically at full lock in reverse? Does it look like you still have room to run a bigger tire in that position? Thanks Josh
  9. Jlm02a3094
    Thanks, I appreciate it. I like the stance of your truck. I just ordered my lift components last week. I went with a 4" BDS, 18x9 Fuel Cleaver wheels with a -12 offset and 4.75 backspacing, and 305/65/18 BFG KO2's. I did a lot of research before deciding on all of this. I also contacted BDS directly to see if I'd have any rubbing issues. Josh

    Just out of curiosity, what size/offset wheels, and size tires did you go with on your 4" lift? Thanks Josh
  11. Jlm02a3094
    If anyone could chime in, I'd appreciate it. I'm looking to see if a 305/65/18 KO2 can fit on a 18x9 with +20 offset using just a 2" level. Thank you Josh

    Added a road armor bumper. Josh

    I'm not sure of the brand. There's a local place here called TintMyRide and they did it for me. I know that it's 5% tint. It's only on the back 3 because it's illegal to tint the front windows here in Vermont. Both pictures are taken right after they finished putting it on. Josh

    Tinted the Windows

    Thanks. It's a Sierra 1500 All Terrain. Which pods do you mean? The hood ones are mounted to a T-Rex bracket. The fog ones are mounted to a Rigid Industries bracket. Josh Stone Blue Metallic Josh

    And another angle:

    Took the bull bar off. Added a N-Fab multipoint bar, a 30" BlackOak LED bar, and a 20" Baja Designs Onx6 LED bar. Working on a custom mounting bracket for the 20" so it doesn't stick out so much.
  18. Jlm02a3094
    Have you installed them already? Why did you get UCA's also? I got Fox's at all 4 corners as well and love them. Josh
  19. Jlm02a3094
    I'm a huge fan of Rigid lights, but for what it's worth, Baja Designs is a much better product. Dollar for dollar they beat out the lumens on every size (bar or pod). They also did some extreme torture tests to compare the two side by side and BD beat Rigid every time. Just saying. Josh

    First oil change
  21. Jlm02a3094
    Oh I agree. I'm pretty sure there are a few guys on here that went with the 275/65/20 on stock wheels. I believe the offset on the AT wheels is +27.
  22. Jlm02a3094
    If I had gone with a less aggressive offset, I'm sure I could've gone with a slightly bigger tire. There were two options available for the Fuel Assault wheels, and I went with the more aggressive one. Josh
  23. Jlm02a3094
    Pictures as promised So, at full lock, I'm about 1/2 an inch from rubbing the back, and 2 inches from the front. This is with a 2" Fox level, +1 offset Fuel Assaults, and a 275/60/20 BFG KO2. There's no way I'd be able to get a 275/65/20 without trimming.
  24. Jlm02a3094
    Hey, sorry I haven't followed up on this yet; just been swamped with work. I will try to get some pictures tomorrow, but at the latest Thursday. Josh
  25. Jlm02a3094
    No worries; to each their own I put them on more for function than looks. The Fuel wheels have an aggressive +1 offset which had them about an inch wider than the body. I was concerned about throwing rocks and whatnot along the side so I opted to protect it with the flares. Josh
