yeah, i kinda agree, the wheel wells were specifically designed for 3.5" tall tires (BFGs, hummers, etc) not the 3.7" slingers and hi lifts, i think im gonna stick with the BFGs. |

| I believe the F350's are ~3.7 in. diameter and the Hummer/LAV tires are 90mm by 33mm which is roughly 3-5/8 in by 1.5 in (remember 25mm=2.5cm=1in.) Anyways, I think the BFGs look good but maybe I would try the LAV tires...they look sort of military. |

I like the mud slingers but you might need a lift or trim he fenders. I think they make it look like a civilian owend vehicle lol.
