Well with the upcoming purchase of an 08 PSD, Im deciding on what rims to get. I will probably get the Harley Davidson edition and put the Pro Comp 8 inch XXX lift on. Is there a certain weight these rims have to be able to sustain? Heres my frontrunner right now for the rim. Please post pics and or your opinions.

Spiffy. I had to look outside in my driveway to make sure you didn't steal my truck and lift it. :-D LOL! Spiffy.

they are getting louder and louder as they wear, and they have an uncanny ability to hold onto rocks until you are doing 70 on the highway

Stymie, do the fender flares stop stones from hitting your truck? I'm just wondering why you wouldn't have some type of running boards on the truck.

I got mud grapplers on my truck, so i know how u feel about rocks. I rotate my tires every 3k miles, that helps with the road noise.

that doesnt botherr me the least, its the fact that with 13K on them, they are 10x louder than they were new.

They seem to have. I dont have running boards becaue the stock ones look like ****. The only aftermarket ones i like, are $500, and lately i've had better things to spend the $$$ on(new shock on motorcycle, new exhaust on motorcycle, new cam for 58, flares on 08)

All the mud tires that I have ever run start out quiet. Then alittle wear and they're all about the same.

My Nitto Mud Grapplers just started out loud as hell. Never got quieter. I cant complain. It was my excuse to upgrade the stereo and speakers.

Stymie · 08-06-2008, 11:12 AM

if they were to start loud and stay that way(my swampers did) its fine, i hate it when they get louder and louder

My toyos seemed to have gotten quieter with about 1500 miles on them, but maybe its just because I'm getting used to it.
