Well thanks for the advice but I will probably go with the Moto metal just because I can get the nitto trail grapplers....if I go with throttles I would have to go with federal couragias which is a cheaper tire

Why would you have to go with different tires?

I agree. Definitely go with the throttles.
Sprayed it above the badge and side moldings and let it soak a little. Then sprayed more on the putty lnife, and pushed.

Wait is that your truck debadged?

To keep the price where I need it to be...fuel wheels are more expensive than Moto... If I went with throttles and nitto tires it's gonna be $3150..too wheels and nitto are only $2600
