Yeah thats how my buddies were. I think I will probably just run them till I can afford toyos.

4.5" over per side. They were buily for 4" lift but I have it around 2.5"-3" Lift. I need to get some new camber bushings cause it has negative camber at ride height right now. The rear is 3.5" over preside.

Once I build conversion knuckles I may goto 39's with that one guys glass but I'm still working on doing a job in trade for a mill, once I get it I can make my knuckles. 37's for now. I'm waiting on parts for his other machine currently. I'm fixing one machine and getting another machine as trade payment. So far the job has cost me 23$ out of pocket lol. Not sure what's wrong with the one he's giving me as payment so I hope it's a decent one.

WRONG... The Generals are noticably heavier than the Projects. On the ProTruck we went from 35" Generals on Alcoas to 37" Projects on Trailready Beadlocks and if I remember right, the 37's were still lighter.

Ya I got it guy, it was pointed out above. Appreciate you noticing though. The only reason I thought otherwise was that's what a friend was saying when he got his generals.
