Brad-150 thanks for the links and information. They are very informative and really good resources I like them. Thank you sir.
I believe you are correct on your ride comment if you would have stuck with 20s in the K02s for sure.
Off topic how do you like the stubby antenna have you had any reception issue with the radio since you changed it out?

The stubby is fine, but really I got it because I don't use the AM/FM at all and I didn't like the look of the long antenna. So I can't really comment on reception because I have only used it for AM when driving in the mountains during storms for weather updates.
For all of my music I use either pandora on bluetooth or I have a bunch loaded on a flash drive in a USB

I ended up getting some BFG K02 275/70R18 and Method NV wheels on my 2018 Lariat. Thanks for the tips and suggestions I do appreciate it.

Congrats! Post some pics of the new setup
I'm sure with the stubby you will lose some reception. There's really no way around it with a shorter antenna. I'm also not positive about satellite radio, but I believe it uses a separate antenna on top of the cab.

Brad-150 I will definitely post some. I tried earlier but phone was erroring out so may have to wait until I get home. Unless I get lucky and my phone stops acting stupid.
Quick question for you, did you do any speedo calibration once you installed your bigger tires?

Yeah I saw that as well, I ended up using ForsFOR and did the tire change I think it worked. GPS and the spedo seem pretty close in numbers when I compared it.
