No kids, wife or girlfriend... just 2 dogs... so I only have myself to blame. I'm thinking of doing it before asking for permission.

Actually, I like the OEM sport wheels a lot, I like the Fuel and XD wheels but I may just stick to the OEMs, plus if they get scratched it doesn't hurt as much lol

I like the sport wheels too but my problem is I'm semi-retired and when I have to much time on my hands this is what happens. I start looking at everyone's pictures and get all these ideas for mine. :idea: Next thing I know the UPS guys at the door!

Funny thing is when I had my Tacoma I never added anything to it except a tonneau cover. I just never liked that truck from the beginning and didn't want to spend any money on it. I really love my Ranger and enjoy modding it some. But it is getting expensive lol.

Thanks, they look great! I also really like the Sport wheels... I guess I have an advantage living here by having a summer and winter set of tires and wheels! I’ll be running the Sport wheels on Coopers in the winter and whatever other wheels I decide on in the summer with the Generals.

Got to try them in the snow last week, they were really good. On deep snow and packed snow on the road there was a lot of stopping grip and I didn't really need to leave 2wd to get around.

Looks great! Curious too if you're going to do a level? I just did mine on Thursday,2.5" RC level kit with Nitto Ridge Grapplers in the same size as you and really like it.
You didn't have any fitment problems?. I've got the 2.5 RC leveling kit in as well and looking for a more aggressive Tire but I'm trying to figure out what size is best. I don't know how guys are installing 275s there without wheel spacers The spindle is awfull close to the inner sidewall.

I think I've decided on these for sure once I get tires. I'm curious if anyone is running LTs. I'm considering anteing up for the LTs for extra sidewall protection. I know I'll pay a slight amount in weight and mileage but I think it'll be worth the insurance.

None at all. I went full lock both sides when off roading to make sure and never had any rubbing. I do like the look of the larger tires but I wanted to keep it as simple as possible without having to cut the crash bars and add spacers.

Are you going to be hauling heavy stuff or towing? I contemplated these too but I don't tow and only haul light stuff so for me the extra tire weight wasn't worth the mpg hit. Even the regular ones will be a vast improvement over the stock ones. :)

I don't plan on towing too much or hauling anywhere close to the max payload. I guess I figured the 10-ply would be the best bet for the jagged rocks we have in the PNW. I'm not planning on any deep woods adventures just yet but I think it would give me better peace of mind. I just wonder if it's worth the sacrifice in daily driving duty.

The 10 ply will defiantly give you piece of mind lol but for me the mpg hit wasn't worth the sacrifice for what I need/do with my truck. My Ranger is my DD so I wanted a little bigger more aggressive tire without taking much of of hit mpg wise or the need to do any other modifications like crash bars or spacers. Do you know the weight of the Grabber ATX-LT's?

I just looked up the difference between the LT's and non-LT's for the Nittos and the LT's weigh 11 lbs more per tire and almost 20 lbs more than the stock Hankooks.

Stock - 35 lbs
LT's - 54.66 lbs
Reg/115T - 43.65 lbs

Damn, that's quite the difference. It's almost identical for the AT/Xs. 40lbs of rotating mass it a lot. Hmmm
