Nice yeah. If you were to get 37s I would say get some coilovers that can be cranked and get an add a leaf. If they rub a bit with your 35s then they would rub like a **** with 37s. It looks good as it is man. The tune will gain some mpgs back and power and the rear iron cross bumper will tie it all together.
Looks good with the strikes.

thanks brother. And I'm gonna end up doing 37's later on. I like the look of the 35s a lot better now with the new wheels so programmer and tunes are gonna be my next thing. not getting the 37s will give me time to recoup some money too, dropped a lot on my rig this summer haha might actually save up for a little bit and get some stainless works long tubes

Holy lord, your truck is straight piped already right? You will hear that sucker for miles, lol. Yeah, the 37s would look sweet on your truck but the 35s are sweet for now. The Tuner and Tunes will make your truck a whole nother' monster. I'm looking to pickup a Tuner as well. Just wondering if it's really worth picking up the tuner as the CARB legal version doesn't carry customs, only canned tunes.

Haha yeah it's straight piped. It's already loud as hell, and definitely makes my truck stand out. I know I'll get some decent power gains with long tubes and if you throw custom tunes on too of that it'll be a whole other level

I barely noticed anything at all with my long tubes, no cats, and custom tunes lol. Maybe the 5.0s respond better to headers. It sounds f****** amazing though! And that's more than worth it just by itself.

You are for sure. I have resonators right after the collectors, in addition to the Roush/Borla muffler, and it's still really loud. I've had the muffler off and it honestly just sounds bad and drowns out even super loud music.
