Looks good. Those tires are looking a slighty small with that BL

In person they look a little better but I kinda just bought em. Only like 6k miles on em. So im not going to buy 33's yet. That and i wanna lift it another 3-4 inches so i can put some 35's on it. I know its going to be a bitch of a job but its going to happen. Slowly of course. But thanks for the comment too!

What?! ANOTHER 3-4" of lift?! Dude, I'm running 33's with only the truxxx lift plus 13mm et. wheels. With the right offset and just a 1 1/2 - 2" body lift I could fit 35's.

Damn dude how do you afford the gas with 33's?!?! You have an XLS so I'd assume its the 3.55 with the V6.

how you fit 33's with just truxxx? how much you rubbin? I was rubbin a little with my 32's and truxxx. With my 3" body and truxxx I surprisingly dont have that much room in the front and rear. I have a ass ton of room height wise but not too much when i turn. I would like to have 35's Shit if I could get away with rancho quick lift 1.75" and run 35's I would be more than elated. But I think Without some major fender trimming I will have to lift more. But I hear someone on here is making cuztom UCA for 4th gens so that will help. Now I will just need to figure out a diff drop down bracket and how to cut out the frame so my axels dont rub. But if anyone has any other ideas. Let me know!

It rubbed a bit when the tires were new.. but now that their worn down a little it doesn't rub at all.

And yes Nate, 3.55's with the V6, terrible gas mileage. I'm putting in around $100-$125 a week. Its killing me right now.

Someone needs to do a re-gear.
