So I went to the 4Wheel Parts store, saw this, decided to order a 4" lift and black wheels. We'll see.

They look like the 38x15.5x18 Nitto Mud Grapplers.

Good call, they are. Also had a CORSA sport. Sounded sweet. The tire combo looks good, but I took a look at how close the tire was to the rear sensor for the bags.... way too close. That truck will more than likely never see wet grass, but if you air down the slightest bit, the word "toast" comes to mind. Very nice looking. I had mine parked next to it like Adam did... mine looked like a postage stamp. The Rancho kit looks solid. A upgrade of anti-sway bars will be needed for sure. I was told this would take 12 to 14 hours and $3200.00 installed... without rims. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_eek.gif

Adam, with that lift, the crap on your GOBI and those tires I am wondering: Will you still fit under street lights? http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_razz.gif

I am keeping the 37's I have now, so I should be able to just barely squeeze under the traffic signals. The 38's are too wide for my taste, despite not having to worry about the air suspension like Tim says. I hope it'll be like Socrates' truck, which I think is one of the coolest on the forum. I think he has the teflon wheels, and mine will be steel.

Should look great! I agree on the 38's. Are you getting the stiffer anti-sway bars?

Well thank you, Adam. I need to post a few updated pictures, as I finally switched all of the chrome pieces to black, except for the door handles. I think you'll be very pleased with the Rancho lift.
