Any trimming required to prevent rubbing? I’m about to pull the trigger on new tires but want to best take advantage of my newfound space? Was going to go 265/65r18 to be safe ...

EDIT: Ah never mind. I see you’re on 16s. Those tyres are about 31.6” diameter. Which is safe. They look great!

Looks nice.

Here’s mine fully loaded with my equipment.

Fox Shocks, OME HD springs with rear spacers. Didn’t install the front.

Tested out today on some super steep hills. These trucks are super capable. I'm gonna source a CDL for back up but man, suspension handled like a champ.

Still, my purpose on this truck in the future is to travel far not off roading. If anything, I'll update the links and engine.
