To be completley honest, I think it actually looked better with the smaller tires since my truck doesn't have a leveling kit, and the ride is waaaaaayyy harsh with the new BFG's, which is another negative factor about those tires. I had bought a leveling kit for it during the winter months but sold it along with a bunch of other aftermarket parts to a guy down the street from me. I have the oppurtunity to grab basically the same tires I had before for a very, very good price and just debating as to whether I should jump on it or not, I have the money for it definently.
So basically, I would just like to know, besides the look, would there be any other actual benefits that exist from downsizing?
Thanks in advance guys.
