What have you done to your K2 today?

Another note if one wants to go pvc pods. Inslate them. Foil facing out, and inner line them with a blue shop towel. Cheap and stupid effective. 

I have extras if anyone wants a couple. Sound is night and day vs non insulated. I tried both ways and the left sounds the best and more natural.

Hey bro do you think those would fit with a 5" lift?

[Rad_Rado17]

I wore out my Nitto MT's.  I was deciding between the Nitto Ridge Grapplers or the Recon Grapplers.  I went with the Ridge in a 35x12.5x18.

I took mine to the car wash and then tooted in it. 

 

Good times.

Not for sure depends on the offset of the wheel you buy, but I am selling these versatyre 33/13.5/24 for 950$ still brand new smooth riding going 37s so no need for these

Not a chance unless you do a lot of trimming.
You're gonna need 8 or 9 inches to get the clearance with the offset.
To be fair, I hate tires and wheels that stick beyond the fenders so I'm a bit biased.
I don't want to kick road grime, rocks, dirt, et al on those behind me or onto my truck.
Also, with the sidewall height, you're gonna have a bumpy ride with those wheels.
Might be why he's going for 37s?

Gotcha. Just figured I'd ask for the lurkers. I'm still gonna go 22s and 35s at some point. Likely the next set of tires I'll step up. I just can not find any solid pics of a 1" body lift of my year. 4" lift is what I settled on.

Depending on what you want to accomplish, you can get a true 6" lift with 22s due to clearance of the UCA and the knuckle.
I managed it with other methods.
I think 22s are too big, even with 35s.
I stayed with my 18s and 35s. If you look at all the new trucks coming out for off-road, they all have 18s - Raptor, Raptor Bronco, Chevy ZR2, Chevy Bison, etc.
There is a reason for that. If you're serious about ride quality and off-roading, it's the way to go - IMO. (unless you're just looking for a pavement princess?)
BTW, I have a 1.5" body lift. 35s with 18s and a 3" level, 1" Bilstein shock lift, 1" rear spring block and a 1.5" rear spring lift.

Man that looks nice dude! So is there some bumper bracket or something?

 

Here is what I am looking to do. 325/50/22 on 22x10 or 12. Sorta like what's in the pic. This is right about the same profile I have now with the 20x10 and 305/55

 

No real wheelin off road here. If get a dirt bike or a couple quads for that. Just some off road fishing holes that may have some need for 4 wheel drive. Sure can't go spending big money to go tear it up lol..

I like my wheels tucked man. To me a 6" lift should fit 37s and at least 10 wides. Not sure if thats even a thing, but it would fill in the wells a bit more to my liking.

Yes, there is. Takes some cutting with sawzall and relocation of a the bumper bracket but if I can do it, you can certainly do it!

A 6" lift will barely fit 37s without some trimming.
Rears will be fine, the fronts are another matter.
Really, I've thought a long time about going to 37s - heck, I thought a long time about going to 35s from 33s.
I measured it all up, trimmed a bit on the inside wheel well liner, had the shop put them on so I could inspect clearance and said go for it!
37s?
Ain't gonna work unless I want to go for a lot of trimming, new rims and a bigger lift.
Really, I don't need a bigger lift, I'm happy with what I have, most of the time.
Had this when I was in my 20s...

[Frankielozano214]

Going 37s because that’s what I had before and it felt/looked perfect for the size of lift it has. Definitely feels alil rough with the 33s but not crazy bad these tires are a lot more noisy then any of the other tires I’ve had.

I just installed a Gen V Linkswell.
I like it, I have a wireless dongle for CarPlay and use it to connect my phone. Also, I can watch YouTube videos or NetFlix, but I never do that when driving.
That's why I use CarPlay when driving.
 

Looks good, how does it function overall though? I've read both good and bad things about that unit and have been thinking about getting one myself but just not sure.
