Totally understand, I had a hard time spending the dough on these. Keep us updated on how the AT3W work out, I've been hearing a lot of good things.

Had these put on last night. My first thought was wow, I can't feel the tires from a dead stop. Second impression, hmmm... I can't hear my tires. Overall, about 50 miles put on them and they ride excellent, quiet (at least all I can hear is my exhaust) look great for an all terrain. Everyone is right, pictures do them zero justice, much more aggressive in person.
Now the wheels, I LOVE these beadlocks. Gave the truck a whole new look and attitude imo.
Some quick pics. Truck is filthy and until the shoulder feels better, it'll have to wait for a good bath.

Looks great! Having a/t's is a bit different than those Trail Grapplers haha. Andrew finally got around to rotating the tires on your old FX4, man you could feel those tires in your sleep! The tread was wearing so bad in the front. We moved them front to back, and side to side, and wow it's like a new truck! The vibration you got from the tires at a slow roll is completely gone.

14 Tuxedo Super Truck
96Grimreaper: I just picked up a 14 Tux Black Fx4 Stock with 20k miles and I love the look of your truck ... excellent postings too. How did you black out the edges of your taillights ? Did you spray them or ? Very cool detail

Thanks guys
Huge difference from the nittos. Hopefully, I'm not cussing myself the first time I hit a muddy hunting trail.
Coming from one of the best looking tires out there, I was worried the wildpeaks would look like a highway tire to me. I agree the larger size makes these tires look good.
That's one big thing about those trail grapplers, you have to be religious about rotations and tire pressures to make them last. I still miss that truck lol
I got lucky I suppose lol
I used a combination of a syringe and small brush.
Here is a huge thread on it and how other guys did it as well. https://www.f150forum.com/f38/painte...easy-do-88981/

Haha, man Andrew loves it, as do I! That blue flame is such a beautiful color. The Method NV's are my favorite aftermarket wheel, and those Trail Grapplers look amazing. You did good haha
