I'm definitely keeping the rims, I'm really happy with the set up, although an offset rim would make me feel better, there's not much clearance between the upper control arm and the tire.

The nice thing about the Duratracs is that they have the severe weather rating which is needed on a lot of the roads around here in the winter. Not sure if those wild peaks do, I do like the name though Wild is my last name

OK I'll try to be as gentle as possible.... GET THOSE AWFUL LOOKING THINGS OFF THAT TRUCK!!!!!
And, pack em up and ship them to St Ignace. I'll cross the border to get them so I won't have to worry about customs charges...
Hmmm... Really though, Nice looking tires. You said you have some slight rubbing at full turn. Where? Rear of the front wells on the outside margins? That's where it looks to me to be closest on my truck. I've been very reluctant to get bigger tires for just that reason. My wife is "vertically challenged" and dared me (under threat of castration) to even think about a lift kit.....

Your truck looks awesome. I wanted those tires for my truck but I didn't think it looked like a good tire for a platinum. The fx4 looks great with that set up and when I do trade my truck I will seriously consider an fx4, now that they have a/c seats of course haha
