Right, so, is your rig nose-high right now?

Mile 55 @ Padre Island

How do you like the Maxxis ATs? I have been considering those for my next go round.

It is where I want it, 1/2 higher than the rear.

Have just over 2k on them. I choose them for road noise and am very pleased. I have 35” Maxxis MT’s on my TJ and did not want the noise. They worked great in the sand. So far I am happy.

I gotta ask, why would you want it nose-high? with all the disadvantages that has.

From the beginning I wanted the truck to sit level, installed a 4” bds w/ coilovers and ordered deavers HD +4. Truck nose was 1 1/2 high and never settled. Re installed factory 1” blocks in the rear and now the nose is 1/2 higher. I still have some adjustment in front coils but plan on adding a winch and think that would settle the front down the 1/2.

Ahh ok, so it's not that you want it nose-high, it's that once you finish putting the gear on there, it should be level again, got ya

With their treadwear warranty I would expect them to last for a while. They have a 285/75r18 I am very interested in but with only a 1.5" level I'm not sure they will clear.

First time really getting the truck on some offroad trails. This was for a beginners offroad class, was really informative even for people who have been offroading for a while, but possibly not as responsibly or intelligently as they should.
