Listing says white exterior. Lazy Dealer or Bait and switch?
Probably bait and switch.

I was lazy and just wanted to let anyone looking know.

Haha, you got me! Won't get new shoes until next week
Since your driving it with just the lift. How does it ride/handle with the lift being the only dfference. Tires can change everything one way or another depending on load rating, width, size, etc.

Once I got the caster dialed in to ~5 degrees, its been very good on the road so far. The shocks are a bit stiffer than the stock ones (running rocksports) and don't soak up the minor bumps quite as well but they do a better job with the bigger stuff. Body lean and fading under braking are almost entirely gone now though which is awesome. Won't get a chance to wheel it with the stock tires so can't comment on that.

I'm going to Patagonia's in a 315/70R17 so they should still have plenty of room for flexing. Since those are D rated and a light tire overall, I'm expecting it to be fairly similar to the KO2s.

Anyone running an 8 pocket silver wheel? I'm back and forth on replacing the wheels with the Baja Xtreme II from Quadratec but having a hard time envisioning what the final look will be.

So essentially I'm doing the opposite as you. I started with the 315/70 17's because my Ram needed tires. Handles like a go-cart compared to the Ram. Since I have a manual trans, I will probably regear since 6th is useless below 70. And as long as I am re-gearing I will probably regear for 37S and do the lift at the same time.

Why not 37s for you?
