    So you ordered wheels and tires and then trading your wheels for those? Or you just ordered tires and using those wheels?

    I know you've got it photoshopped already lets see it.

    That's right. My buddy has the black hostiles but he wants chrome wheels so I ordered chrome and we're trading wheels since his are basically new. Keeping our tires

    Ok cool.

    What made you go with coopers this time? I've got the discoverer ST maxx and they seem to be pretty good.

    But not as bro as mud terrains on a pavement princess.

    I love the way they look honestly. I'm tired of trail grapps. Plus I wanted to try something new. I've had KM2's, toyos, Goodyear wrangler MT/R's and now trail grapps.

    I've seen Black Bears before and it was at a local tire/wheel shop that sold all sorts of weird brand tires. I'm sure a major tire company makes em and "re-brands" em.

    Spent the day putting the Bilsteins on, set at 1.5"

    Sits a lot higher now. For some reason my truck didn't sit as high as other 4x4's lifted 6". I don't think it was the tires either. Starting to think the uniballs were actually limiting my full 6 inches even though that doesn't make sense. When I put the Bilsteins + strut spacer back in the uniballs physically wouldn't bolt up. They hit the spacer and were no where near the knuckle (just like when I tried adding 1" to my other truck). I ended up buying stock arms and everything bolted up fine.

    Another thing. My rear fabtech shocks are trash. Again just like my old truck. A few months after installing the lift. These lift company made shocks are a joke.

    Anyways pics!
