Looks great with the 2/3 drop. Mine is dropped just 2 in the rear but been debating doing the 2/3. How do the wheels fit with the drop? Any rubbing at all?

They have coatings for pretty much everything, including leather. Thats what was used on this ;)

They fit great, they are a +25 offset, so spacers where mentioned on here as being needed - 1/4" works great. I have some hub centric ones on the way, currently just some local auto part spacers tossed on for now, and when it comes time to rotate tires - I'll swap 'em out.

Love color matched trucks. I'm not a chrome guy. You're doing all the stuff I'd do if I had the money.. X2, drop, wheels.. and I'm assuming some badass lights soon..

How has the X2 performed in the rain and the car wash? Any leaks?

I drove 8 hours in the rain yesterday........and didn't even check it......I have one on my '10 though (prior model) - it leaked a smidge.......but this one seems to be a bit tighter on the bed. Will have to check it out ;)

That's great. Do you think the X2 is worth the money over a VP or fibermax? Im looking to get one within a couple months if I can convince the wife.
