thanks. if I did it again I would have just spent the extra 500 for the calmini but oh well. I do owe allot of the outcome of my lift and tires to the helpful people on this forum for all the advise and knoledge.

and I owe the great choice of tires ALL to thrash on here because he showed them to me and I checked the tire rack reviews and did lots of comparing and sure enough, the kumho's are the ONLY choice from what I read. no complaints about them at all so far

well, I about 3/4 throttled it for the first time since I got them and I had the trailer behind me. it was slugish. that was with the trialer though. I have given it a bit of a hard half throttle a few times and it still seems with it. I have yet to give it all it has with them. i should do it soon. I'll let you all know.

I think the gas mileage is about the same too. hard to tell with how far off the spedo and odo is but I'm predicting insignificant change.. I'm babying it to preserve the tires though
