I'm gonna take it to my exhaust guy and have him cut them back and then keep this muffler with dual outs and dump it right past the axle and have the tips stick out enough to see them. Probably keep them cleaner a lot longer too, the tips that is

I feel dumbfounded I never looked up under the back of my truck until now I just assumed it had 2 inch blocks because my 06 did, I feel slightly cheated. I guess it's time to add some 2 inch blocks to make me feel better.

You guys know anything from personal experience with federal couragia m/t tires? 35x12.5r18?

I have read all sorts of reviews and people say the sidewalls crack and dry rot but when I talk to people personally they say the have no problems with them. So I'm getting mixed reviews...

You looking specifically for mud terrain tires? Cause my all terrain dick cepek fc2's are great. They grip good on the road and aren't terrible off road, obviously there are better. Actually pretty quiet for the most part and wear really well if you keep them rotated (also helps with noise like any tire). Have about 25-30k on them and they still look like they have at least half tread if not more. Have also done a handful of burnouts with them lol

I am looking for anything at this point. Right now, I may be sticking with my level kit and 285/65/18 nitto trail grapplers. How much did those run you if you don't mind me asking? If I can find a good 33x12.5R18 tire then I would run that with the 2.5 level with 2" rear block (if it fits) haha. Some say it does with trimming. But for now I'm looking at tires between 33-35 inch tires. Sorry the message is all over the place

For 35x12.5r17 I think I paid like 390 a tire. Bit expensive but met and live up to all my expectations so far. I'm not off roading much so it does what it needs to do. I would stick with your tires you have now until they wear out cause you may want to lift it more and want bigger tires like I did lol

I've had good performance out of my nitto mud grapplers, I've got the 35/12.50/20 and they average around $400 each can probably pick the 33's on the 18's fairly decent, so far they've done good on dirt, snow, wet roads, and dry roads but are a little noisy, but that's just my 2 cents

My tires are pretty much bare and cracked all along the side walls so its time for some new ones. And yea I know I absolutely want a 6" lift with 35's but I am not sure if this is the truck I want to do it to. I'm still in college so I got a lot of life ahead of me for a big ole truck. I have been going through that conscience battle though about lift and tire size.haha

 

 

And Brandon I really like nitto's whole line of tires, never ran any of them myself but from the looks of it they are very durable tires with great performance reviews. I'm most likely going with the trail grappler buy I am still keeping an eye out for other tires til June when I go to purchase

If you pick something stick with it. I can never commit. I get bored with the look of mine every 6 months or so and. Change it. Next step is to do a 2/4 drop from stock

That can get rather expensive, you must have deep pockets.

    • Because that is IDIOTIC, much like this question. They've already been forced to do it by past administrations - why would you roll that back when it's a GOOD thing?  WHO IS ARGUING FOR LOWER MILEAGE???? 😂  NOBODY IS!!   I'm certainly not! What I want is RELIABLE vehicles again that are worth the price paid!    I don't get your logic here ...   In 2003 I paid $2,200 for our '86 Grand Marquis. It's STILL running and I've never been inside the engine, aside for the timing cover since it was leaking, so I threw a new timing set in since that makes sense. Transmission is ORIGINAL. Electric pump in the gas tank is ORIGINAL. Rear end is ORIGINAL. I'd have to hit my head REAL hard to want to pay $60k or more for a car that still can't come close to the comfort, seating and storage space, or reliability of this one. Nothing is even in the ball park! Hundreds of thousands of brands and models have been built and sent to the crusher while this one keeps on going!   https://postimg.cc/Z9XRrCSg   I've got a whole fleet of cars, motorcycles, and a truck close to this age for summer and winter. No one could pay me enough to buy anything built this century. I have zero use for any it.
    • Since I'm the one who has to fix them when they break, I'll take vehicles over 30 years old all day, EVERY day, over ANY modern crap. Have you attempted any repairs on anything built after 2006? It's a friggin nightmare, and gets worse the newer the model year.    If I had the will or desire, I can make any car of any age outside of a Model T (I don't have THAT much will ...) just as powerful, comfortable, and have all the tech the new stuff does, and get pretty close in mileage, too. I prefer SIMPLICITY. The less the vehicle has, the less to fix WHEN it breaks, not IF.   I'm glad you snot-nosed punks don't like them. More for us, plus that keeps the prices from climbing more than they already have.👍
    • Bringing this thread back on topic. I just noticed the incredible lack of bright chrome across the entire new lineup. Even the Denali has tinted the brightwork in the grille and has none elsewhere. None of them have chrome bumpers. As far as I can tell there aren't even chrome mirror caps. I'm curious if this also happens out back? Are there no chrome rear bumpers either? This is quite the departure for GMC.
