Your observations are just like mine regarding the 4X/3 bar. The BOV does make a "whonk" or "wheek" sound - even when not vented to atmosphere. I was a little concerned about the WOT 1-2 shift at first but after driving mine for about 500 miles, the wheel hop is reduced. It still breaks the tires loose on that shift but it seems to have smoothed out some.
Actually it was a close out lol that's why they were so cheap. They weren't really my first choice but with the size I wanted (one up from stock) that was about the only option at this particular tire shop. And for the price....it was a no brainer. Next cheapest option was $1000 for Toyo.SHOdded said:Is this a new tire model? Hardly any reviews out there. Time to get your truck all shined up, no excuses
I did wash the truck yesterday and dressed the tires and trim....you can't tell??
Now the Heep....yeah....hasn't been washed once yet. But...it's a Heep

Love those FX4s!
Why do all of the trucks still have the ugly metal antenna on the front fender? Most cars have it integrated into the windows or shark fins on the roofs. Just annoys me!

haha okSHOdded said:It does look all shiny, down to the wheel & tire, just want you to a) keep it clean and b) post more pics! LOLford4thot said:I did wash the truck yesterday and dressed the tires and trim....you can't tell??
I do keep the truck pretty clean. it started out as a $45k truck (I didn't pay that lol) so it definitely deserves itI put some silly decals over the boost badges recently. ...They were free so why not

yea, itll do that with time as the adaptive learning does its thing... even my 4+ tune tried to wheelhop just a tick when i first loaded it, the 4X tune def makes that worse, but its has already smoothed out a good bit in the miles since. I just poop back and forth to work usually so im not aggressive.

Thanks guys i got alot more to do... Your pick up is lookin good with some new rubber. I was always curious how those tires performed.
Thanks! At $600 for 33s on 20s it didn't even hurt. Not my first choice but too good of a deal to pass up at the moment. Some road noise but barely, these trucks are super quiet. AC, wind noise cover it up easily. Less than 50 miles on them but happy so far.panther427 said:
Also today I took off running boards, and the "diaper" underneath. It's there (not metal) to protect tall grass from hot exhaust, and cut down on exhaust/turbo noise.....cant have that!
