Default I think I'm done - Thoughts?

I decided to pull the trigger and splurged on new wheels and tires upgrading from stock 18's to 275/65R20 Goodyear Duratrac's on XD Heist 20x9's. Purchased from my local Bell Tire for just under $2500 out the door. This includes new TPMS sensors since I'm keeping stockers for now.

Based on the gaping hole in my bank account after this purchase (and all the others) I think I need to take a break from you fellas. It's not you it's me!

What do you think of my Blue so far?

Pretty sick looking truck, i'm sure it'll satisfy you for a couple of months until money starts burning a hole in your pocket lol

How do you like that exhaust by the way, i'm considering that setup as it sounds like it's a compromise between stock and "really loud"...Any pics of it from the back, does the tip really look as huge as some of the reviews i've read

Thank you. Don't really have a close up shot from the back but I can tell you after install I thought it looked enormous and at first didn't like it but it does not bother me at all now. Sounds is great mix between stock and loud with no drone although since I bought through Stage 3 Motorsports I opted for the quieter Mach 46 muffler over the louder MR400 Resonator. Very happy overall even though the exhaust tip arrived with a dime sized dent in it which Solo immediately offered to send a replacement for but since it was not visible once installed I kept original and also didn't want to mess with paying a shop to cut off and weld on the new tip.
