    Yeah I originally was just going to do the Camburg spindles with the Nitto Trail Grappler 295/70R18's, but I started seeing all the 6" Pro Comp lifts with 35's. I know that I can get height with the spindles and my adjustable CO's but I really didn't want to have to track down someone to install the spindles, block, leaf pack, etc. I just wanted to drive it in and have everything done right the first time. I actually like the look of the DB kits also.

    I did notice that the 35 x 12.50 was actually a 13.4" wide tire...that is big but definitely looks good. I'm just going to hold off till then because gas keeps going up and my truck is my daily driver. I really wanted to pull the trigger on the lift and tires but I guess I will wait a bit longer.

    The best price I found on the Toyo's was on Tiresdirect.net for 299.98 each, and the Nitto Trail Grappler's on Discounttiredirect.com for 303.00 each. The Nitto's came out cheaper in the long run though because Discount cuts you a break on mount and balance and free shipping...$1368.00 out the door. The toyo's mounted and balanced were around $1600.00.

    when i get tires in may, i'm definitely getting the nitto mt's, little pricey, but i think it's worth it for sure.

    Just saw some Nitto 295/70R18 on a Chevy full size 1/2 ton yesterday and previously on a Tundra... they are freaking HUGE tires man. I dont see how you could want larger. I had 35x15.5" Super Swamper SX before on another truck. IMO over 13" wide and a full 35" tall is just TOO big. Would be a colossal feat just to change tires in the event of a flat.

    Here's a picture of the Federals...The Nittos were a great long lasting tire but to me they just don't have that aggressive look I was looking for.

    glad your balls are bumpy...but yeah, I ate mine up on a long road trip this weekend. Got there and ordered new ucas... They are gonna be tough to align with a 3 inch lift (assuming thats what you have)
