Thanks. And a HUGE thanks to all that helped answer my questions and the people who took the time to write up install threads!

Lookin good, I like the whole murdered-out look! I like those wheels too

Agreed it looks good!!:thumd3:

Not really a fan of the Gauntlets but they do look good along with the DuraTracs on your truck, definitely much better than the oem's and Nitto's

So how do you like the Duratracs compared to your Terra Grapplers?

 

[Kenn]

The TGs served me very well. Great AT tire. Great on road/wet/off road tire. I saw the Duratracs and liked the aggressive tread pattern and the sidewall. Plus the reviews seemed pretty good from the members here.

I wanted to try something different and the GYs fit the bill. The duratracs are great so far, but I only had them on for 2 weeks. For a D range tire, it feels softer than my TGs D. It still rides great and with the lift and new wheels it feels almost like a driving a new rig. Love the stance, love the height, and love the ride.

Thanks, I could not wait to replace the oems. I hate the oem sr5 wheels. The Nittos are nice looking, but I love the look of the GYs much better. I think it looks beefier and more aggressive.

How is the ride with the 885's up front? Stiff?...I have the 5100's right now and planning to get that same set up. Still debating on 884's or 885's.

Its stiff but not too stiff. It's so much better than stock. Members have suggested if you have the v8: 885, v6: 884. I couldn't be happier with the 885s.

Fyi, the 884 and 885 coils are the sane stiffness, the only difference is the 885 is taller. The v8 is heavier, so the 885 is commonly used for a full 3" lift, and the 884 is used on the v6.

Did you end up using wheel spacers?

Damn that looks great! What's your fender measurements.
