Dood...might have just made up my mind for me. Love your setup. Looks great! I'm putting on a 2" level this weekend. Still no issues with your setup?

Thanks!

I'm still very happy with my setup. My MPG has went down about 2.5 MPG but that was somewhat to be expected.

I still find myself looking back at the truck every time I exit it. It just looks so good IMO.

Just got my tires and wheels installed today. Method NV 18x9 -12 offset with Falken WildPeak AT3 275/70R18 with 2" RC level. Came out exactly the way I want it, the front is about 1" outside the fender, the back maybe 1/2" outside. Slight rub when full lock reverse, so I will try the zip tie trick tonight. It is a lot quieter than I expected for E rated tires, ride is a little bumpier on highway, but still very acceptable, but right now I am think about upgrading to some Bilstein 5100.

Awesome wheels! Do you think if you had gone with +18 instead of -12, it would have been a better fit?

I think it would fit better, but I want a slightly more aggressive look, I wanted to make my tires almost flush with my side steps.

How's the ride; much rougher than stock? And what tire pressures have you been using; about 40 psi all around? Sorry for the interrogation lol. Just curious about the details before dropping the cash.

The ride is stiffer than stock for sure, but after 1000 miles give or take I gotten used to it. It's not that bad. I'm running 52 psi, that's what Nitto recommended when I contacted them.

I can live with that; worth it. Thanks!

That color combo goes great with the truck, nice work. I wish they made the NV in polished or Chrome, I want to try something new.

Those side steps were made by Tyger, they are call Tyger Armor Steps. Here is my previous post with more pictures of those steps, reply # 6178.

I think Method has a bronze version of the NV, but I was afraid it might standout too much on my silver truck. I had a Subaru WRX years ago that is silver with bronze rims, it looks good on that car, but not sure how it would look on my truck.

Someone on here has some on a black truck. Actually looks pretty good. I think he powder-coated some black Methods.

I like the bronze on silver. I like it on blue too, maybe I'll try that.
