Dean's '11 Crew Cab Budget Build

You'd probably almost get a street tire performance out of an AT tire with the coopers tbh.

Best tire I have owned. They took almost no weight to balance.

I'd either go Toyo MT or Cooper AT. I like the look of the cooper tbh. But I've never had STTs or anything either so my standards are low lol

I got around to installing everything yesterday. Took about 7 hours to do everything with hand tools. The front components are bilstien struts set to 0, 2" rc bottom spacer, and .5" tgc upper spacer with rc UCA's. Rear is stock shackles, no blocks, and factory shocks. I'm still waiting on the rear bilstiens to show up so I can put them in. Measurements as it sits are 38.5" front and 37" rear. For some reason the drivers side rear sits at 36", but I'm attributing that to the worn out factory shocks. I'll remeasure once the new ones are in and go from there. Here's some dirty pics from yesterday and some clean ones from today.

General Grabber AT2s imo. Love mine. Slight road noise. Great looking sidewall. Same tread pattern as BFG AT but half the weight.

Finally got some pictures of some of the angles today for those of you that are curious. The rc UCA's seem to really improve them and add a bit of downward travel. These are at ride height.

On tires, I'm really starting to lean towards Toyo M/T ($1700) or Atturo M/T ($1200). I would go with the Atturo hands down if I had more solid input on them, but I'm seeing mixed experiences all over the internet. The only other worthwhile option would be 305/45r22 Terra Grappler G2 ($1200)

my dad has the Atturo, absolutely HATES them. They're hard, noisy and wear like shit. Also take a lot to balance. Hes about to buy Toyos and just toss the Atturo.
 
Dirty again but more pics. Got the bilstiens installed too.

Remeasured and front is 38.5" and rear is 36.5". Should I (A) leave it with 2" lean (B) add 1" blocks for 1" of lean or (C) add 2" blocks so it sits dead level?

If you were closer I'd consider trading wheels with you, 20" tires are cheaper than 22 inchers. Just trying to help you save some money lol.
