And the more and more I think about it the more and more I wish I had gotten 37's lucky for me though I've got a buddy that would by my wheel and tire combo, so I'm hoping to do that before the end of next month

What I would do is get any cheap 17 or 18" wheel that'll fit with your lift (or even the stock spare and stick that on the back if you blow a front tire), then hit Craigslist or the offroad shops looking for a heavily used 35" tire to fit it. Personally, I'm not gonna bother with a spare at all cause I have AAA and the jack won't be able to lift my truck once it's up in the air. I never go offroad and shouldn't ever be somewhere that AAA can't get me and tow it.

Money money money! But he'll yeah, I'm beyond ready to be a pic ***** and show off my truck Nothing wrong with Bama's option, but if I was blowing an extra $700 on spare gear, I'd want it displayed in the bed. And that means I can't use my bed, so that doesn't work for me.

Either way, unless I got a bed rack and wanted to play prerunner, I'd find a cheap wheel and a cheap, used spare 35". No sense in letting a new $400 tire dry rot. Maybe a cheap, steel bullet/revolver wheel that's $100 if you're forced to go new, and will have 4.5" BS to work with the lift. Then still any 35 that you can find for $40.

Clean bill of health along with a new PCM/TCM update. Not to mention I let my service writer in on my intentions with my Tunning and lift. Services manager wants a ride after, he is considering lifting his 150. Good to have ties with the local dealership.

Last wash at stock height. Guess I will never be coming to my favorite car wash. Funny thing is they said they hand wash at 50 dollars. Nope I'll wash and enjoy it myself.
