They are cold natured but thats typical of tires in this size range now days. Very good in warm weather. Any plans to lower?
Thanks!! I've heard some good about the 420's, so I thought I'd give them a shot. Currently I just have a set of 2" drop shackles on the truck, but I'd like to end up with at least a 2/4 drop to help close out the gap in the wheel wells.

You won't regret it. I love the Belltech kit I have. The front is adjustable from +1" to a drop of 3". All in roughly 1/2" increments. With a little work the rear can be adjusted as well which how I got the stance on mine. Plus it allows me to tow and use the truck like a truck.

I've been looking at that kit since you mentioned it. So far it seems like the one I'd go with, especially with the adjustable front end. Thanks for the recommendation!
Plus keeping the functionality of a truck would be nice. The cheapest I've found it for so far is right at $500, so I'm waiting to see if I can find an even better deal somewhere!
