Bought a 2018 z71 in September. Just ordered a 2 inch level kit and either 285/60/20 or 305/55/20 Toyo open country RT. Will post pics next week I hop.

jimmyboy8301 Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 must be a city thing that look just don't work in the countryThose statements are just plain dumb, I’ve seen plenty of 35/22 combos off-roading. And his suspension setup is better than most “country trucks” or any other truck so I’m sure it would work just fine.

Is that a Boss Hogg quote? I’m sure you’re not actually implying that it physically won’t work in the country hahaha Now I know the look of my truck is not everyone’s taste but that’s a lot of the reason I did it so if you mean you personally don’t like the color combo that’s totally understandable. But as far how it “works” this is a works pretty much anywhere truck, it goes on and off road on a regular basis for work as it’s a daily driver. And like me it just cleans up well after the moneys been made. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk It’s all good my friend I hear comments like this often. I’ve found that it usually comes down to 3 things because obviously the truck itself does pretty much all I would ever need it to. Either the look doesn’t coincide with personal tastes, they can’t build it or can’t afford it and in all case try and blame it on some lack of functionality. Am I going to drive this truck up the Rubicon or take it out to some huge mud pit and submerge it up to the windows, no, because I’m not an idiot and it’s a work truck not a rock crawler or a mud pit pos. I do appreciate your kind words though my friend. Have a great one! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So then it’s the first, it doesn’t work with your tastes in style. Which is fine because I didn’t build it for you so everyone has a right to there opinion on what looks good. Just don’t say “the look doesn’t work in the country”, just say “I like less aesthetically pleasing vehicles” I totally understand that I got a couple guys that work for me that love to run into shit with their trucks for new scrapes and dents, strap light bars everywhere and go throw mud at each other in empty fields bro’n out. They don’t ride so hot or see much attention from the opposite sex but to each their own! Cheers Side note: since you can obviously build a substantial truck and have no problems affording a vast array of modifications yet would never so much as be seen driving my truck please share a photo of you full build driver so I can see where I went wrong.

Local guy builds some amazing rides. Brand new trucks cuts all suspension out and adds some amazing new set ups. Stop and talk to him he shows me around I'm floored by the custom work. I ask who buys these and most are out of town guys etc. I've seen several go out on trailer s. Back to point you just don't see that type set up in my area...the super wide low profile look just not that popular. Is it growing some what maybe. Most off road guys don't run the low profile set up. Not talking new trucks at royal blue but beat up trucks made for off road work don't have that look....
