Couple more pics

Looks great brother! I am deciding on offset. Could I possibly get a couple full side pics showing just how much your -18's stick out?

Thank you

Have you checked customwheeloffsets.com? If not, check out the gallery on that site. Lots of different wheel sizes to give you ideas.

I have but as I will basically do the exact same setup as you, this is most accurate. Fuel wheels and the same Nitto's with a 4 inch.

Thank you again. Looks perfect. I'm sold.

One thing to keep in mind is that apparently some brands of lifts cause the front wheels to stick out further (Rough Country I believe does) than the rears and you may have to add spacers to the rear wheels. The Mopar (Superlift) lift I got doesn't do that.

Side note, but if you ever want to go darker on the tint, most TN cops don't really seem to care. I've run 5% all around for years on multiple vehicles and I've only caught flak two times (both on the same day...neither wrote a ticket)

I had 20% on my 14 Sport and never got hasseled but I thought it was a little too dark at night. Plus, I may end up back in TX and they check the tint during yearly vehicle inspections before you can get the vehicle registered.

Great looking rig. This is the counter to all those murdered-out trucks.

Yep, i used to do this at a local lube place. i rejected a lot of illegal tint cars trying to get a state inspection. we would put an X on the back of the sticker to let the next guy they go to know there was an issue. some didn't care and they would pass the car, but we document everything. the people from Austin came down and saw i rejected one for tint and they went to the next station and found the same VIN that had passed, they suspended their license for 6 months. i got yelled at a lot by car owners, lol.
Not sure why i had to tell that story
Nice truck BTW
Wait to come back to Texas till the cold fronts start coming in, its been high 90's down here, triple digits on some.
