For that much money it isn't the wheel and tire combo I would go with
The chrome with black insert will probably look really good on your truck

yeah i know it man. I really like it, but to be honest it won't be realistically affordable until probably October (in school, minimum wage, gas, insurance, etc...) It'll happen. On the bright side, the guy has 9 sets on ebay with no end time and the last set he sold was in November, so I should be able to snag em lol.

I'm running a body lift on my 3rd gen...and have a bl on 2/3 Jeeps that I've owned. I think a lot of the bad wrap they get stems from back in the 80-early 90's people were actually trying to use hockey pucks, and other low quality materials.

I've never been a fan of Body Lifts either. That being said, if you're just wanting a few more inches to tuck some larger rubber, and you're not worried about increased effectiveness, they are great!

What I'm trying to get at, if all you want if bigger tires, they are great. If you want it to off road better, get a nice 7" long arm.

How are your nerf bars mounted?

You will need to adjust the exhaust to go up too I believe
