Sure did take a while to clean this truck off after this fun mudding day. But hey, having your truck going sideways at 40 mph in a muddy old lake bed is so much fun. Traction control was mad at me no matter how I set it, so I used the SCT tuner to turn it off for the day to enjoy the fun just a bit more. You can see the muddy lake bed in the background. That sure is some sticky mud. hard to wash off, even with a pressure washer. Note to self: check washer fluid before going mudding, so you can play longer!

I love seeing a muddy truck and it's good to see you out having fun. Though personally I would never go with rims like that because I am not a fan of big rims on anything other then semis and tractors. But hey to each their own. I will have to disagree on the statement about those tires not throwing up gravel. My old F150 had 33x12.5 toyo MT's and they threw a lot of gravel. My Dad's truck has 35x12.5 toyo MT's that throw gravel all over as well. Great tires and I am wanting to get some for my current truck once the stockers wear out. But I would never go that wide without some fender flares. But like I said to each their own and glad your enjoying truck as a truck and not a big car!

. Well mayb it's the width I'm running or something. I wouldn't lie about it. Or mayb the gravel roads I've driven are just worn really well with pebbles left. Idk. Never had any hit mirrors, or paint or anything with any rocks. They are great tires and I knew what I was getting into before I bought em. Had pretty decent Luck so far. "Knock on wood"

As I said in a later post, I was being facetious when I posted that. I am very anti lift on a pick up truck and believe they are pointless on truck that will never go the very few places it could actually br used as a benefit. They don't serve hardly any benefits off road over a leveled truck and they make it more of a PITA when you want to use your truck as a truck. Not even in most rock crawling terrain will it serve in greater benefit, and would actually do more harm because the center of gravity. Basically they are just for show which is fine if a truck owner wants his truck to look like that, but to think that it is any better off road is laughable. So no, I was not being serious when I posted that.

I wasn't trying to suggest you were lying. Be a weird thing to lie about haha. It's the worst with gravel right after they resurface the roads and it's all lose. During the winter when they don't maintain them the gravel gets packed in pretty solid. What's the offset on your rims? And with them being that wide do you have any issues with rubbing while your front wheels are fully turned?
