Speaking of Lemonade, I now have a full size spare with one of the two original tire/wheels that didn't blow out. I'll take a picture of the full size and spare Side-by-Side. It's a significant difference in height.
If anyone now needs a spare STX SE Rim, reach out as I will have three...
Got the new wheels and tires on last night. Alignment is knocked out and the steering wheel is turned off-center a tad from the curb strike after the blowout, but there are no other issues. The Hankooks seem quiet, but do ride a bit different from the Bridgestone HTs.
With the alignment being...
I'll post pictures shortly, but it was a piece of angle iron that blew the front, causing the truck to hit the curb in the back and take out the rear, and tear up the rim.
Last night, I found a NTO (New Take Off) set of STX Special Edition rims at a dealer supplier, complete with TPMS and...
I really liked them, as it was a big improvement over the stock, and kept the rear bounce away. I drive a 2WD STX Crew Cab. Wanted to do the fronts with a Level Kit, but the Bilstein's were backordered until November, and ended up buying a 2wd Eibach level kit from another member.
Things you...

Model#: 24-294225
$140 for both. I will ship at an extra cost.

I installed the Ford trailer brake controller. As I needed to run both power and brake output, it took about 6 hours. Also used the Lightforce switch fascia.
Since I replaced the rears, I'm noticing the front much more. Thinking I'll put on a set of 4600s. The freeway I drive to work is pretty "floaty", and I was really noticing the bounce effect with the stock shocks.
Anyone mix Eibach in the front with Bilstein 5100s in the rear?
My backorder just updated from September to 11/17/2021 on the 5100s, so I'm looking at getting the Eibach's for the front as the 6112 are just a bit too much for me. It's either that or put Bilstein 4600s on front while I can still...
