    What's the wheel backspace and offset? Anything rubbing?

    Depending on the light it looks different colors of red/brown:
    IMG_5699S.jpg IMG_5698S.jpg

    It's a 9" rim with -12 offset -4.5" backspacing. There's some rubbing when I go reverse but it's minor. I'll take a heat gun to it soon and get that fixed. Here's how they sit:

    Looks great! Damn I like that color interior and how the truck sits now, well done! How is it off-road? Any other rubbing as the suspension articulates?

    I also have an MGM Limited, mine is a '19 with black leather. I did want the redwood but the dealers here didn't bring that interior color in with the MGM exterior. Although I'm not in a hurry to do a lift, I am planning on moving to 17" when I need new tires and figure at that time I'd do the "upgrade".

    Welcome .Wow that’s a great lookin limited. I also lifted mine with the Dobinsons lift kit and UCAs but I curious to possibly see ur cv angles? Mine are ok and seeing if yours are similar would put my mind to rest as to whether or not I installed my kit properly.

    Thanks! Pretty good off road but I haven't had much chance to take it out. It's done more than I thought it would though

    I have a diff drop so idk if that would answer your question. I'd prob do it if you haven't

    Can't really compare since I changed wheels and tires at the same time, but it's really not much different from stock. I think it's a little more comfortable overall.
