Thanks guys, plan on getting some new rubber this week, thinking 285/55r18.. Also still need to order the fuel pump (still undecided). I have drop coils waiting to go in and bought some drop hangers from Andysc3. Going to do it all at once

no, kind of undecided on what i want to do with them. I might leave them like they are now. The two little holes don't really bother me and you can't see them driving down the road.

How you like those tires? Trying to decide what to put on my titans. Would like a 55 series tire but not many inexpensive options there
