Went camping last week and had a lot of gravel came out when we left the campgrounds. I don’t really plan to do anything about it, but a set of Hankook take-offs from the FX4s crossed my mind. I’ll probably just live with it.

People who live in glass houses should not have rocks in their yard.

All glass houses should come with a Leelee Sobieski.

You're in the Tremor section. Stock tires on the Tremor.

Meant to reply to the couple guys asking what tires.

Mud flaps.

Been looking at mud flaps and the bushwacker door sill protection too. Still doesn't keep the tires from picking up rocks, new tires will definitely be put on but I will probably do at least one of these options too.

These tires are absolute garbage, I have never seen this before. My truck has 550 miles and I have already had to spend a evening repairing chips on the lower front doors because I can't drive over a single rock without these tires throwing them up.
My family and I are always up on mountains and I have to clean out my tires after every trip. Going up the trails today to go mountain bike riding but not before spending 45min cleaning out my tires!
I will be ordering new tires this week, most likely the Wildpeaks AT3s or the Ridge or Terra Grapplers. I have had all these tires and they haven't had this problem before.
Is this something that should be brought up to Ford? I know I'm not the only person who has had some damage done to their trucks because of these tires. I have never had a new vehicle before so I don't know if they even care about that sort of thing.

This is my mornings pillage

Save that stuff ... won't be long you can chip seal your driveway

I had rock guard put on up to the lower body line all the way from the front to the rear and the nose from the hood to the bumper, as well as the leading edges of the wheel moldings, I learned my lesson on the Raptor I traded in, it was blasted any place a rock could find, which is the whole lower 1/2 of the body.

When I come back onto asphalt from dirt, I run over the lane dots in the road, both sides a few hundred feet, it really helps clean the rocks from the tires.

It's a truck, isn't it supposed to kick up some dust, throw mud and rocks around ? All the off road vehicle commercials I've seen the trucks are making clouds of dust, throwing sprays of water when fording streams, and then best of all is the KIA Telluride plowing through a cow pasture throwing up a stream of stinking cow patties , an off roaders dream.

The first thing I did was take the stock Hankooks off and replaced them with the Ridge Grapplers. I don't like mud flaps as they will usually get hung up or torn off while off road. My rockers look perfect after 16,000 miles but I do have the factory steps which I'm sure helps some. The rears though are not protected and they still look brand new.

Yeah, I really didn't want to do mud flaps for off-road reasons and I do not care for them anyways. I just wanted to get the rest of the truck dialed in till I do wheels and tires. We have been doing more towing than off-road lately too.

I love my Ridge Grapplers on our Honda Pilot, they have performed great off-road for an AWD vehicle especially. I might get a couple rocks fling off them but it is probably in the center section so never noticed anything. Glad to see yours is going good.
