Picked up these today, so it's a start in the right direction.
Very nice truck! Like the fact your sticking with OE style wheels. Is kind of funny though you're hauling the wheels around in a SUV when you have a truck...Just kidding...
Saw in your other posts you going with 35" Ridge Grapplers. Those are some big heavy tires, I'll be interested in what you think of them.
That's going to be one good lookin truck when your done. Hopefully I can pick it up on the used market down the road lol. I'm going to pick up a set of Ridge Grapplers soon for the 2014. I cant wait!
Damn......I think I need to drive down to Wichita and convince you to trade me your Sport wheels for my Black Rhinos.....How did you just stumble on those wheels? I have been looking all over CL and FB Marketplace, nothing up here around Topeka.
Oh and glad you are back, I am looking forward to following your build!

Thank you
If my defense, the wife and I were already out and about in the Escape lol. I've ran Trail Grapplers on all my other trucks so I'm pretty used to the extra weight, I'm excited to try the ridge grapplers.

lol, now you're starting to sound like all my friends. How are the trail grapplers holding up? I know I've said it several times but it is a love/hate relationship every time you post a pic of your truck.

I actually got really lucky since I couldn't find a set anywhere. A buddy who is a Chevy guy took them on trade and he just needed to unload them. I don't even wanna tell you how much I paid.
LOL, fair enough. My brother has them on his 2015 and is being stingy on trading me. He doesnt keep his trucks long, so it shouldn't be much longer........

You'll enjoy the ridge grapplers. I really like the 35x11.5 size. Gives it the big tire look without completely destroying your mileage since they're narrower.
2.25 readylift installed, removed the valance and the front tag bracket. Ground to fender w/ 275/55/20's measurements: front 39.25" & rear 39.75". Measured on the driver's side with a full tank. These pics aren't great as the parking lot is uneven but they'll work for now.
Tires showed up last night and those along with the sport wheels will go on tomorrow morning. Truck is absolutely filthy from road salt but it's supposed to be in the 50's this afternoon so hopefully that will change.
