with the wheels purchase i got the two front OEM tires included. my plan were to put the 255/40/20 front tires on the rear wheels and buy new ones for the fronts. got them on but i had rubbing issues, specially with passengers in the rear

started a wire tuck this past weekend. if youre planning on doing one, i advise you to label the wires because more than one set of wires are colored the same. one down, plenty more to go
