I’d love to hear your thoughts on the change in ride with the new setup. I’m looking to get into 35” tires. I’ve narrowed my choices to the KM3 or Falken MT01. Do the tires feel heavy? Do they feel stiff? How different is acceleration and braking? Thanks.

No difference in acceleration or braking - tires just look insanely badass. In terms of ride, I had a vibration after pick up - took to another shop to road force balance and not a single weight on the wheels. Make sure road force balanced!

Just finished putting in my new front driveshaft, wasn’t having any problems yet, more preventative maintenance. I figured since I got 3.5” of lift from my 2” Mopar lift, :facepalm:..... this was a good idea.....:)

I've installed full racing stripes and wraps on dozens of cars. I've ordered graphics from Pixeldecals.com before, and they were great. However I dont know if they switched vinyl brands or what, but whatever Walmart level vinyl they sent me to use for my fender vents was the most ill fitting unforgiving pieces of thin plasticky vinyl I've ever used in an automotive application. I got them installed, but they just looked cheap, so I pulled them off and tossed them. Very unhappy guy here that usually has a very long fuse.

I will not order anything fro. Them again. $40 down the drain. I got them installed, but they just looked like cheap shit, so I pulled them off and tossed them.

@Crusifix

If chitty as you say, then @pixeldecals needs to send you better product or give you a full refund.

Maybe I'm too picky, but for the price, I was expecting better quality vinyl. It's not worth the hassle at this point, as I doubt I would be happy with a replacement that they would send I will just get my vinyl guy to make some from his Oracal 970RA or 3M stock.

Did you even reach out to @pixeldecals? He is a nice guy and responds to messages almost instantly. Im sure he would of helped you and bashing them on the forum is not the way to do it.

I didn't even realize they were vendors here. It just put me in a bad mood. I had already put a hood decal in my shopping cart and was getting excited about it. I was just disappointed in the vinyl. I will always give an honest opinion. Nothing should prevent that.

@Crusifix

You did absolutely nothing wrong. If the offering is iffy, it does not matter whether the provider is a forum sponsor or not. You have every right to say something..

I tagged @pixeldecals after I saw your initial post. This will get pixeldecals attention.

Perhaps they had a poor batch of vinyl.

Anyway, if the offering is not up to snuff, then they need to make it right or give you a refund which undoubtedly they will do. They are known to be a good vendor and will work with you I'm sure.
