Well this is my first poset on here and I'd like to say hello! I've been debating over what tires and wheels to go with for my 05' D-Max and finally decided on some, so off I went to the my buddy Robs shop and picked out the ones I wanted, a few days later they were all mounted up and there on the ole' truck as of yesterday and I'm lovin' them! After we rolled them out of the shop I was like Whoa! Those are some big a$$ tires! We pulled the 285/75/16's on stocker wheels off and we turned up the torsion bars up 1" from stock ride height and and cut the inner fender liner up about 3" in the front because at full lock it would slightly rub which was not a big deal to me. Other than that we tie strapped the emergency cable back with 3 ties and and now from lock to lock there no rubbing at all! Here's a few pics I snapped tonight with it all cleaned up. Just in case anyone is wondering the wheels are 20x9 Incubis Grim 505's with +20 MM Offset, the tires are Good Year Wrangler ATS 275/65/20.
Thanks Mike! Hey I was looking at your website, I'm currently running a homemade straight exhaust from the stock down pipe with no cat or muffler, the only problem is it turns down right behind the cab. Do you offer a straight pipe exhaust system from the turbo back? I do not want a cat or muffler in the system so if you do let me know as I'm getting ready to buy one here pretty quick.
Welcome to the forum!!
Wow those wheels look mean!! I like the stance of your truck! Looks awesome!
I think you need to upgrade your avatar pic now

Thanks guys! I'd like to get some upgrades in the performance department but I have to figure out what I want, I was going to start off with the exhaust system and good free flowing air intake system and then probably step up and get an Edge or Bully Dog System. I don't want anything to wild just something to give it a little more power over stock. Mike I'll PM you and get you the info. Thanks!
Edge out of the 2 you metioned but better yet IMO is the ATS,Quadzilla,PPE and EFILive.
