My new XD Addicts!

[08Ram3500SRW]

I agree, i can crank it all the way right and left and no worry about any rubbing. They really do look bad in person, i can't say that enough, and nobody out here on the island has them so thats cool too.

Do you think w/ the carli leveling kit i would need a trackbar if i decide to take that route?

No i am not sure on the weight, i just did a quick google search and couldn't find much, i can tell you that performance wise going from the stockers to these, i didn't lose much, i still have good punch, they grip a lot better cause i know their wider and stickier, but i didn't lose much so overall weight comparison can't be too much

Do you guys think i should get blacked out headlights, like the anzo kind that have the halo? How do you think that would look? I was thinking of getting those and some smoked taillights (pry led type, like recon)

Just lookin for opinions, always seein what i can do to customize my truck more...train horns are somewhere on the list

I highly recomend going with the starter kit so you can get the added benefit of the leaf pacs for the rear too. I would get the track bar. You probably wont rub but the track bar will tighten up the front end and keep everything straight and w/in factory spec. Its a little more expensive but its best to do it right and the ride will be much better.

Thats what i figured, i'll prolly just end up going with the 2.0 kit and call it a day, maybe for christmas or after i get back from this deployment...i do wanna get exhaust though

Ban89, what exhaust mods are you running if any/programmer too? (a little off-topic for this thread, but here i'll keep it on track....)

Thanks for the adds about the Addicts!!! If you wanna know anything else about them let me know!

I guess i can start with the intake and work back from there.

AEM brute force since it uses a dry filter and has the best fine dust filtration cababilites. I'm in silty/dusty conditions often.

Shibby EGR/cooler delete

XRT mostly ran on the 120hp tune

exhaust is a 5'' turbo back straight pipe that exits/dumps right behind the cab. Running it out the back in the normal location was too close to these big A$$ Bilstein 2.65s so i had to shorten it up. Not too loud and probably the best flowing exhaust you can get since there is really only one bend.

What are the offset of the wheels? What do you think about the Dick Cepek FC2 in 35"?

The 35" would fit i don't doubt it on these wheels. The offset/backspacing is 5.71" backspacing and i believe they have a 12 or 18mm offset, but it really doesn't matter to much. The size again is 18x9. These are about as close to stock as your going to get w/o using the hummer wheels or other stock 17x8s.

They look great, tuck nicely, and again i have no rubbing issues whatsoever. Could go w/ a 35 and still be fine im sure of it, i just didn't want to lose too much performance/mileage and i haven't leveled it yet just to get the beefier stance (you wouldn't need the leveling kit regardless to fit the 35s)

Hope that helps

Ryan

Now Im thinking about this 5" spacer from TGC...HAHA.

As far as the bumper goes, when you strip down the dodge model you can get it w/ the black bumpers all around and rubber floors so thats what i did. Underneath all that chrome they put are some nice flat black bumpers, you can order them direct from dodge or search ebay. Thats how i got the front valance on my old dodge, off ebay

I love the way the wheels turned out, now i just need to get this 5" exhaust and i be set...oh and a transfer case skid plate, anybody got one handy???

Ryan

Are these wheels on a stock suspension? These pics may have sold me on the Addicts, only in chrome. Very nice
