DONE: Procomp 6" lift 35's on 18's (San Diego)

[throbinskin]

Will I finally did it !!! I would like to thank a lot of people here on this board and from other boards too. It took some patients and reading through a lot of posts to come up with all of my decisions.

Thanks to 4Wheelparts having a great sale this past weekend. Everything worked out perfect. The sale consisted of buy 3 tires get the fourth for free. Buy 3 rims and get the fourth free. 25% off the PC lift. 25% off labor.
I payed a little extra for a 3 year warranty on parts and labor - no questions asked. Also, my tires came with a 40,000 mile warranty

I went with the Procomp 6" lift stage 1. Tires are Procomp Extreme A/T - 35x12.5 R18. Rims are Procomp Series 1028 - 18x8.5. I went with this combo on wheel/tire for minimal weight when comparing to other rims (20's vs 18's). Procomp tires were also not as wide and heavy as other brands. I believe they actualy come to 34.8 in diameter and 68.9 lbs. the step bars are smittybilt.

I did loose some power and right now it seems like I have only lost 2-3 mpg (4.7 L V8) Cruising with the cruise control @ 65. I'm hoping to get some power back with a CAI and Exhaust. Thats next. !!!! I will post results on mileage within 2-3 months from now to be more accurate.

The Procomp Extreme A/T are smooth and quiet. I loss a lot of bed bounce too !

Thanks again everyone for your help !!!!
Let me know what you guys think !!!

your rig looks nice and is set up for off road thanks to the 18inch wheels. How well did the smittybilt bolt up. I had those on my Ram and was looking at getting them for my Tundra.

Looks awesome! How was your experience with 4wheel parts? How long did they have your truck, and were there any suprise costs? Did they switch out your TPMS? Congratulations! I am super jealous and can't wait to get mine at the proper altitude!

This is my first set of bars... I like the Smittybilt they look real nice, feel strong (I'm 6'2" 200lbs.) I'm very happy with them and got them for $197.00 at 4wheelparts.

I'm sure someone here has ran into a problem where ever they go. and has a bad story. I visited the 4Wheelparts in San Marcos / San Diego off of Nordhal rd. The Staff was excellent and very friendly. They told me if I brought it in Wednesday morning at open they could have it done that night a 6:00 pm. They were slow that day and had three guys working on my truck. I walked out 6:30 that night. There were no surprises at all. They walked me through everything and even played with some numbers to get me a better deal. I paid for a 3 year parts and labor "No questions asked." They do match internet prices too. I got them down on the PC lugs, and the smittybilt bar with match pricing. They even put the nitrogen in my tires for free. I was told if I was having any problems to call and setup an appointment and they will re torch/tighten the lift and rotate tires etc. ect at no charge. I was very happy. AND ---- No I never knew any of them till now.

Throbinskin, your truck looks really nice. I love the wheels. that's the wheel that I am going with. Silver is a good color for it. I prefer the Pro Comp Xtreme Mud Terrains though.
Congratulations and enjoy your ride.
