They have been on for just over a year with about 20k miles on them. They've got about half tread leaft which is a lot of tread for these tires, they come with 22/32 stock and my last oil change they were at 13/32. I also have extended length bilstein 5100 shocks for the front. You will need to crank or install new keys to run this on a stock 4wd hd. You will also need longer shocks or the shock bracket extenders, I will include the shocks with the trade. I was looking to get around $750 plus the stock wheels and tires. The wheels are panther torment 18" with 4.5" BS Chrome finish. No pitting or any scratches blemishes, etc. This entire package new would be at least $2000 mounted and balanced plus the shocks are $180 plus shipping only available from ORU. Im in the tampa bay area and this would have to be local.

Did you have any problem fitting the 325's on a 9in rim? Did you have to cut or trim? Did you crank the Tbars?

I also have the tires and wheels off my 2006 2500HD, They have about 5,800 miles on them.

The 325's fit nicely on the wheel and in my opinion give my truck the perfect stance. I've seen a lot of HD's with 6" lifts that dont look nearly as good simply because they picked the wrong wheel and tire combo with an incorrect offset or width. As far as trimming, I trimmed the lower front valance just like most people who put aftermarket wheels and tires on, its basically a must on the GM trucks because it hangs down so low. I didn't replace the factory keys, I gained enough lift just by cranking my stock keys to run the tires. Originally I cranked them as far as they would go and gained about 2.5" just from crank with stock tires, then when I put the wheels on I had clearance so I decranked about 1/2." All in all I gained about 4.5" up front and it completely levels the truck, It was a tad higher in front at first but it seems like it has settled down a little bit now, I would imagine however though that I could still crank my bars that extra half inch. Cranking the bars did make the ride a little stiffer but with the bilstein shocks on I would say it probably rides better than stock, especially with the wider heavier wheels and tires. You will definately notice a difference in ride quality.
