Well the shop called and told me my 275/65r20 nitto terra grapplers are in and after work I'm going straight there for them to put them on! I can't wait like a kid before Christmas. I'm crossing my fingers it doesn't need a level. If it does I'm just about in need for shocks so I'm gonna go with the bilstein 5100 at .75" clip up. Any ways here is a before pic will update afterwards!

Well ism if anyone is looking at these size tires but I highly recommend the 3.73 hear with them I couldn't imagine anything less. They deffinitly hum going down the parkway but I can deff notice a pretty good power loss with these but hey they look awesome and I hope no more getting stuck going out hunting.

Yeah E load and can deff. Tell the difference of the ride. Deffinitly more road noise than the pirellis especially doing 80 and above. But in my mind its a " truck ". Those pirellis were car tires that spun all over the place and got stuck. I like the extra inch you sit up and how they don't rub so I don't hafta change the front suspension. I like it stock not level.

Plus the E has slightly deeper treads and is more rugged to reduce the risk of punctures in the woods.
They do OK off road, but don't treat them like a mud tire, or you may be stuck again.

I did the same set up other than putting the shocks at the 1.75 setting. Love it, great ride and no rub at all. The shocks transform the truck. The tires are fantastic, we have had some serious rain lately and those nitto's stick like glue. The combo of the Bilsteins and terra grapplers can get you in trouble. I routinely catch myself entering corners much faster than I should...
