What did you do with the OEM fog lights? Cuz I know Hefty gives you 2 options for fog lights and CBI uses OEM fog lights.
Can you post more pics from different angles ?

I don't have OEM fog lights but this bumper was pre production. I do have a set of rigid fog lights tucked down low where they should be they are actually really well protected due to the bumper mounts so no worries about them being this low. My BD lights are real blinders so can't run down the HWY with them on lol...

Thank you! It Looks awesome! What size is your tires?
Go look at the 10 posts before yours - they're all discussing his tire sizes and fitments.
I like the roof rack delete, too.Thanks! Zero rubbing issues but my truck has aftermarket upper and lower control arms which helps pull the wheels away from the body mount a bit more.
The lift is center of hub to top of fender for the front is 23.6"' and 25.65" for the rear. These tire's should be perfect on a 7" rim, I am maxed out on rim width and keep thinking I need some evo corse wheels to get it where I want it. Have yet to put them through their paces but they will earn their keep early next year! Pic below is suspension set up without my front skid but gives you a good idea..
my 265 ko2's are nearing the end of life and i'm considering 255/80's, ideally I wanted to stick with an AT tire but not many options
can anyone give an update on how they like their 255/80's?
If switching to a mud tire my concerns are performance in snow and ice and performance on wet roads
The only AT tires I see in 255/80 are Falken Wildpeak A/T3W and Toyo Open Country A/T II

ridge grapplers are decent in snow/ice as well as wet roads. i felt very planted last winter on 285s

and also the Cooper ST Maxx.
255/80 is what I plan to stick with. 33" is the largest diameter you can fit without body mount chop, and therefore the most true ground clearance you'll get.
At 10" wide, they still have plenty of contact patch for good pavement manners without being a massive drag. I've gotten 20mpg with these tires on a long highway trip at 65mph. The ST Maxx really dig in when aired down, too. Great sidewall lugs.
Only complaint(s) about the ST Maxx are weight (60lbs per tire) and getting loud as they age. I've watched pressure and rotations ever 5k but they've gotten pretty loud anyway at about 15k. Still, though, they're tough and I don't worry about them at all on the trails.

I have no lift and I have a slight rub on the front mud flap. I think with a 3/2 you should be more than fine.
I was just debating getting these before a lift, as I'm hating how the factory tires are on I-70 (they want to wander/feels like I'm sliding all over)
Are you running into issues with rubbing?

I rubbed slightly at full lock and going over a bump. I ended up removing the front mud flaps and now have no rubbing what-so-ever.

Do you think this is because of the more narrow wheels with the SR5?

I think it is the lack of lift and running 33's. I took the mud flap off and no rubbing at all.

Would a lift change the geometry and cause rubbing???

Also, what PSI are you running and what MPG are you getting?

No I think it would change were the tire was contacting the mud flap. If you notice on the front mud flap there is a little "hump" on it. I think with a lift it would lift it out of the way. Just speculating.
I am running between 32-35, kind of depending on what I air up at when I get done off-roading. Mixed driving(city and doing 80 on the freeway) I am getting 17. If I am doing 65-70 full highway I can push 20-21.
