Great-looking truck, Utah!! How do you like the 3.73's with those tires. Looking back, would you still get them or go 4.10's? Thanks again! Looks great.<br>Chris

Hey, wick. ;D

My steel Tuff Country 2&quot; spacers were a whopping $75 from my local Tuff Country shop. If you go to Tuff Country's web page, they have a listing of dealers.

I've used the poly spacers from Daystar before too. And, they were fine. But, they cost $179 a set and the mechanics I know could not give me a good argument for going with the poly ones vs the steel.

Best to y'all
Bill

No, the swampers fit with about 3/4&quot; between the tires. They are pretty skinny at 10.5, closer to 10&quot;. thanks.

If you haven't, your rpms will remain the same, at a given speed, as they were with stock tires. Just curious. I am wanting to get 35s for my new 03 HO that I just picked up last night but don't want to loose to much power. I guess, while I am on the subject, has anybody recalibrated their speedo after installing bigger tires? What do you have to do? <br><br>Thanks<br><br>Ed<br><br>[/quote]

No, took em off, don't like how the front wheels stick out so much, kept hittin em on rocks at the ranch. I just too off the front hub extender and added 17X10's in the front.... makes the ride much smoother too. I just bought 17X8's to put in front because with 35's now they rub with the 17X10.... If anyone's looking, I'll make you a heck of a deal on 2 pretty much new wheels....
