Default What would you do (2 choices)

I have enough cash to get a powertrax locker or HP tuners...

I already have a PCM for less reflash, but i think id enjoy tuning. I also have a laptop so no worries.

But I also have an open rear

I wish I could do both, but I cant stand the small tires my truck is riding on (265/70/17).

I guess a third option would be to do both and keep riding on smaller tires. I want some 285 or 305 width tires

I think that you made a good choice. A powertrax is something that you can grow with. How bad are your tires??? Or is it just that they are too small?? Also what makes you want to go with hptuners and not ls1 edit??? just curious??
