Looks awesome, it adds a lot to the look but somehow manages to still look clean and "natural"...that is not overboard and too crazy! Good job

Nice choice of wheels/tires. I really like the look.

SnowDawg

Very sharp. That's a unique color/wheel setup. Good work.

SteveLord

Great looking. Sad this was the only year of the Guard color!

PropanePowered

Truck looks killer! Love the gunmetal wheels. They work perfectly with the Guard paint.

Thanks, those might be the best angles ive seen so far. Rough Country is really stepping up their game on the newer products.

Very nice. Looks sharp.

Not a bad looking rig, how does she handle on & off road, what kind of wheeling do you do & would you do it like this all over again, or next time do something different.....

Handling:
She handles great. The electric assist steering manages the 37's like stock. Where I live around downtown Houston, the roads are worse than the dirt roads of Laos.

Ride Quality:
Being that it is a strut spacer in the front and block in the rear, the spring rates are still the same. Subsequently, so is the ride quality. I'd like to tame down the stiffness in the rear. On stock height I tried the stock FX4 shocks and Bilstein 5100. On this lifted setup, I put some MX6 shocks and dialed them to the softest setting. It is still a little jumpy in the rear(like stock). In the future, since I don't really tow, I'll probably go with some softer Deaver springs and couple them with Pro Comp's MX2.75 coilovers in the front.

Wheels:
Light weight. Look good with Guard paint (IMO)

Tires:
I haven't gotten into any slop yet, but hope to tomorrow. On pavement, they handle well in the rain so far. They definitely have a bit of an MT hum, but no better or worse than previous Toyo Open Country or Nitto Trail Grappler. If I get tired of it in a few months, I may go to Mickey Thompson Baja ATZ P3.

In summary... Yes, I would do it all over again.
