Well they arent the best looking tires compared to some of the one's i've had in the best. For instance i loved my Nitto NT450s(i think they were?), but they were nearly 700 bucks.

It seems that tires have slightly raised the truck, but they filled in the wheel wells. So its a trade-off.

yeah, theres HUGE benefits to working at a tire shop when u've got a lead foot. But the small raise in clearance is definitely worth the filling of the wells. Im about to put some taller rears on and fill it a little more. Then wait for some springs and drop the front a little more

oh i dont work at a tire shop. I just got a very lucky deal since the manager thought they looked worse then advertised(79$ per tire).
