My mileage took a hit (about 2-3mpg highway), as this setup is VERY HEAVY. Tires are around 65 pounds each according to FedEx, wheels I'm not sure. Again, expected.

They don't seem to have taken a lot of weight to balance, and they're smooth at speed (even at 85mph). I haven't gotten a chance to get off pavement with them or in wet conditions yet to comment on that performance.
That is one nice looking tire for sure, I guess I will continue to call around and see what shops have to say. If discount does do them it would be perfect since I could have my 35 K02's installed at the same time. Thanks for the help!

No problem! I generally hate tire shops, but they're sometimes a necessary evil. Lol. The Discount I dealt with down here was awesome.

Anyone on here do body work or know someone that does? My little cousin got in a wreck in his Mustang (everyone is okay). The passenger door, passenger glass, and body where the door latches is beat up pretty bad. I don't have pics right now, but it only has liability insurance so they're trying to get it done fairly cheap.

Negative ghost rider, when my truck got wrecked I had full coverage and took the truck to Mac Haik Ford Body Shop. They do an incredible job and do such a good job you can't tell it was ever wrecked, painted, or had a part replaced.

I really like Master Auto Body and Upholstery - I've used them many times over the years with great success. They do it all...

Default Bed Extender and plug socket

If anyone needs a bed extender (off of 2008 Lariat) or a 9/16th plug socket, please see my listings in the 2008 parts section.

Thanks

Hey folks,

I was a member of the forum back when I bought my 2010 Lariat and now back with my 2017 Lariat. Live in the Sugar Land area.
