? For Those Running Fabtech Lift

Hey all what wheels are you guys running. Just got my lift, and am looking to buy wheels (rims). I'm kinda fond of the MB Predators. How about some feed-back.

What finish are you looking for? I've got Ultra 248 Series - Chrome. Kinda similar to the MB Gunner 6's - these were cheaper though.

I was at my local 4Wheel Parts store today to see if I bought the PRG system could they put it on, and he said they can only install parts that they sell. So I asked what lifts they sell for my truck, and he said none.

Having seen the Fabtech advertised at preformancelists.com and the huge Fabtech banner at the 4Wheel Parts store when I got home I looked up the part numbers and gave the guy at 4WParts a call. He checked the numbers and confirmed that they do sell it, does work on our truck, can install it, and will update the website to show the link between the kit and our truck.

So now I'm seriously considering this approach but want to know if any members have installed the Fabtech 6" Basic Lift Kit for the 2006 Frontier 4WD CC (K6003) and if anyone has installed it what are their thoughts. Are you happy with it.

They claim 315/70R17 TIRES 17X8 WHEELS W/ 5” BACK SPACING is the max tire size which is 34.5" with minor trimming!

Thats how most places are, if they don't sell it they most likely won't install it.
