Ride quality...well....it is NOT anything like stock. The steering feels much "heavier" and the tire noise is much louder. The truck still accelerates hard and brakes fine, but I can feels some difference from stock. The stock springs and shocks seem to be doing fine with the extra unsprung mass.
I will say that you should probably not look at 35's unless you are willing to trim the fender lip and fender liners, install a lift or both. I think a 33" tire is as large as you can run without doing this. I'm going to trim when I do my lift and I may still need to adjust my steering stops.
I will update my build thread in the 4x4play section after I do my lift so check it out next week.
Thanks for the complement. I love how it looks, too. I just can't wait until I have some suspension travel. As it sits I think I have 1.5-2" of up travel before I'm fully stuffed and rubbing the fender liner up front.
