It's your truck, run whatever you like, paint it anyway you like, put in xm,
Sirius, or an 8 track. Who cares? If someone does not like it, screw 'em!

Dude, don't let him mess with you... I run 31x10.50s on the front and
31x13.5's on the rear when I am towing just to get that extra 1/2" of
turning radius... It looks sorta tough, kinda like the old style street
cars with the drag slicks on the rear and skinnys up front....
