Those KM2's are nice, fun in the mud too....Any rubbing problems with the 35's, my 35's on the 99 F150 rub on bad off road situations and I have 6in lift :)

Looks sweet, I knew it wouldnt be too long before it had some mods. Those KM2's have a sweet tread pattern.

Looks Great! Tires fill out the wells nicely!

Thanks for all the compliments!

I got the kit from the shop that I got the tires from. It lifts the back using a larger block that replaces the factory block.

I haven't rubbed yet. I'm assuming that they will probably rub somewhere at full lock when offroad though, nothing major though.

I keep telling myself to stop modding, but it just doesn't seem to happen! lol

I found some of the bigger towing mirrors with the chrome covers at a wrecking yard today... Almost bought them.

lol, We don't get much snow at all in BC where I am....
We are lucky to get a foot, and if we do get any snow, the roads are a nightmare because nobody can figure out how to drive in it...

Looks great, the 2004+ f150s are by far my favourite generation.

Which wrecking yard? It's hard to find any that carry newer vehicles. Truck looks mint buddy.It's like a super crew version of mine with no bush marks.

It was at Ideal Auto wrecking in Chilliwack, near Cultas Lake. The truck was a black '08 supercab with less than 10000km on it.

Lol, I thought I had spent enough that day, and just have not had the chance to go back and see if they still got them...
VErrry nice.
Thanks!
