Here's some pics of my new wheels and tire combo.
XD Series 795 Badlands Bronze 18X9 4.5" backspacing with BFG 305/65/18 :blueblob:

I really like the look, many compliments at the lights and one thumbs up on the freeway on my return home from the tire shop.

Although I am experiencing a bit of rub on the OEM mudflaps..guess they gotta go or I should let the tires wear into them:rockon

No lift or leveling kit as of yet, but I'm swaying towards just doing the 2.5" leveling kit and leave well enough alone for now.

What you think of the new shoes?:hi:

Looks awesome. I like the bronze on silver look.

Looks good! Awesome rims!!! I think you should get a leveling kit, IMO it would make the truck look alot better.

 

[SlikRick]

Damn!! I was just looking at those at 4WP. Im lovin those wheels.

The tire shop folks thought the look was very unique and it makes the truck look very rugged even without a lift kit.
I've decided to buy a leveling kit but not through no shop,..after receiving leveling kit quotes from 4X4 shops in my area which averaged between $650 to $900 installed and wheel alignment. I couldn't believe my ears and eyes when I saw the quote. I can have my friend machine a billet spacer for less than $60 or I can just go and buy a set on Ebay for $90 and install it myself + a $59 alignment and use the savings on a complete set of Rancho RS9000 shocks. :blueblob:

Now all you need is a gold tooth in your grill to complete the look. I like it but you need a little more gold to go with it. IMO

 

[titan_1965]

More gold?...nope, not for me. It's perfect the way it is...besides I already have one gold tooth:rockon

Your truck ROCKS with those wheels and tires!!!

 

[billaj]

Sweet, your truck is the first I have seen with the Bronze rims. They look black in the shade and bronze in the light.

The wheels look sweet, I'm not crazy about the chrome center though. I'd paint it black.

Leveling kits....don't be a tight ***, get the NCD or PRG kit. They are time tested/proven. Much more durable than the few other brands like "readylift" and "daystar". I believe the NCD kit is like $100 but doesn't include bumpstops, the PRG kit is like $200 but includes everything you need.

I don't get access to these for six months, due to bronze being exclusive to them. I tried to get a set of these a couple months ago.

I want the Badlands with the 325/65/18 BFG AT KO. How do you think the Bronze will look with Smoke.

Anyone know if the near 35" tires will squeeze into an 08
