back flip bed cover.
Any comments on how loud the tires are? This is my first full size truck and I'd like to go with a gnarlier tire (I have the same wheels), but I'm concerned about cabin noise, particularly at interstate speeds.

Since it's only in the 80's here today in Phoenix I jumped out in the garage to work on my truck and finally get my radar detector hard wired installed. I just pulled the direct-wire kit from my previous vehicle to re-use on this instead of getting mirror-tap which would be just as easy.

I used the super sticky mount from escort and mounted it to the bottom side of the rearview mirror and then ran the direct-wire through the top carpet panel and down the a-piller on the passenger side to the fuse box. Used the "add a circuit" for a 2 prong micro ATR2 fuse and used fuse #36 and grounded the wire right there at the fuse panel as well, there is a 10mm stud sticking out holding something in place so I just grounded it there. Took about 10 minutes to do the install and its nice and clean and no more cords running down my dash to my cigeratte lighter.

Current:
Leveled, 35x12.50 Toyo R/Ts, tint front windows to match rears.

In process:
1.25" Bora spacers orders (hope the setup works).

Yes it's there newest tire. Not AT, Not MT, in between. Love them so far. Aggressive look more similar to the M/T without the additional road noise. 45k warranty too. I ran 295/60/20 Terra Graps on my last truck and they are every bit as smooth and quiet as those.

there is road noise with these, its not horrible. I think it sounds kinda cool. I know the mud grapplers or a lot louder. but you can hide it with the left **** on the stereo...lol but seriously they are not that loud.
