Thinking about going with a very similar setup. Any chance you can take a pic down the side to see how far they stick out? Thanks in advance!

What's the largest tire I can run on stock 17'' rims at stock height? Saw that Spurshot ran 305/60r18 at stock height, could I run 305/65r17?

Got my rims back from powdercoating yesterday! Just waiting on the ko2's to come in!

Going to swap to black McGard lugs when they arrive from Amazon. Also added a dual wall Gibson 4" black ceramic coated exhaust tip to set off the wheels. I love silver-the truck is dirty in these pics-drove through a rain storm with Cquartz on.

Gibson 500427-B, not cheap, but when you see one in person you'll understand why (double wall very thick). Shipping weight was 5 lbs.

I did have to widen the clamping slot with a metabo blade to allow it to clamp tighter.

This looke A+ man. Love the Silver and Black combination. I really like those tires, let me know how much you like them compared to the OE Goodyears.

Thanks, I love it.

 

Will do. I'm a huge Michelin fan. Only issue is I need to sand some of the bores as the paint is heavy making two center caps not fit flush. I've got a 1" front lift kit (lower Al spacer blocks) I'm going to add this week to raise the front end a little. I think that will look nice but keep some rake for loads. I have airbags, but I don't want to add air every time I put a load in the back.

 

The truck rides much stiffer than with the 18" wheels and Goodyears. I had to put my adjustable rear sway bar on full soft (was at middle setting) to get the rear end to settle down at 75+ on a rough section of interstate. The truck had a center console shake but only on rough interstate, moving the bar to full soft fixed it. I suspect with a load in the bed this issue would go away and the bar could be stiffened back up.

    • So I purchased the Range unit for my 2026 and I am seeing different locations suggested for the ECM . Can anyone confirm wither under hood, left side or right side or behind the wheelwell?
    • Like I've said before. Di and Carbon buildup is not that big of a concern. Engine had minimal buildup, and that engine was obviously not super well maintained. Do regular oil changes, and you're gtg as long as the rest of the truck lasts. Also, the High Pressure FP that people ****** about, but can't tell you why.  Now, I wish they'd trash the variable oil pump. No real world issues with them, but I'll gladly eat whatever miniscule MPG it's saving me in favor of more oil at all RPMs.    Curious to see his assessment of the 7.3 compared to the 6.6. I expect he'll praise the port inj, but from a structural standpoint, the 6.6 is as robust as any engine out there.    Not to take away from the 7.3. I feel it's equally as good as the 6.6.     As to heat on the rear cyls, I'd have to see numerous examples before I'd say it's an issue. Especially not knowing the history of that engine. For all is known, they could have blown a rad hose, and ran it hot, and the 2 rear cyls may be the first to get hot in a low coolant situation, but not be an issue aside from that. 
    • "Life is getting back to normal."    I'm driving again and all new joints are operating as expected for this stage of recovery.   My most recent joint replacement still requires a lot of attention but experience has taught me that time will quiet the remaining pain.  I joked with my surgeon that another joint replacement would take my mind off my most recent surgery and he responded by saying the next will be a hip!  There are no plans for another surgery but, unlike me, I don't think he was joking!  I certainly wouldn't refuse further replacement  if required but hope to spend time out of the "post-op"  period.  I can't stress enough that if you have been recommended for total hip, knee or shoulder replacement that you welcome the offer.  Post-op "recovery" may sound daunting and painful, however, this is far better than the insidious erosion of mobility you are currently experiencing.  Imagine what it would feel like to wake up most mornings feeling better and more mobile than you did the previous day!  Prior to my first surgery in June 2025, even getting out of bed was becoming a formidable task.  Since the day after my first surgery, I get out of bed everyday easily and unassisted.  Making the switch to feeling a little better each day rather than a little worse, is hugely motivating!
