[RunnerPDX]

Brand new 2016 Trail Premium with KDSS option purchased this fall. I'll be adding links to write ups as I get them done...

So far I've done the following:

3" Toytec BOSS lift - write up coming
UCAs - Total Chaos
17" 398 Manx Wheels from Vision
275 70 R17 - BFG KO2s
HIDs
LED Fogs
Plasti-Dip'd front and rear bumper trim

Planned:

Spacers
LED light bar and hybrid fogs
Stealth Gobi Rack
Side Steps
Proline Elite Rear Bumper with Tire Carrier
Southern Style Speed Hybrid Front Bumper

Here she is bone stock, right before I drove it off the floor.

And here she sits today:

Same, but different (old and new)

Like the KO2s a lot.

I had Duratracs on my 3rd Gen and they were abysmal on the highway. The KO2s are a huge upgrade for highway driving (which I do a lot of) -- quieter, smoother. Mine are E Rated and heavy, which is why I didn't go for 285s. These runners aren't the quickest and I didn't want to sacrifice anymore in the pedal than I had to.

At 275, they're a little smaller on this lift but I plan on adding spacers to push them out a bit. No rubbing at all.

I can attest that these perform well in snow. Took them out a few times around christmas and performed just as well as my Duratracs. They don't clean out as well as the Duratracs at slow speeds but I'm happy. I haven't tested these in mud yet...
