I always picture the "Anti-Chrome" as like a Transformer! You think it would be an Autobot or a Deceptacon?

Decepticon. Not all chrome things are bad, but a Decepticon wouldn't care if it was bad or not. He'd just destroy it.

Lol thinking about re gearing to 4.56 and keeping now. I'm also about to order the bilstein adjustable 6" struts and matching rear shocks along with replacing the pro comp/factory stacked rear blocks with a solid pro comp block. Debating having everything powdercoated while doing it as well. If I do re gear I'll slap a new machined rear diff cover on also.

It's just money right? 🙈

By G2s, I meant nitto Terra Grappler G2. It's the new style Terra grappler. Couple changes to the tread lugs, but mostly the sidewall design. I really like them. Nice to have that new tires ride again. I got over 50k out of my last set, and still sold them for $100.
Only problem is that tire guys had a he'll of a time getting them on my rims. Of course this size isn't recommended, but I never have had any issues, and they wore perfectly. One rim is pretty ****ed, from where it must have popped off the mounting machine, and the bar dented my chrome clad covers. Another one is also dented up.
I really like these whees, but I think they are leaking slowly at the rim. Started looking at Xd Badlands 18x9 -12mm offset.

Awesome. I currently have the older style terra grapps and love them. Very smooth, good traction and look nice. I'll probably get G2's when it's time.
I love the rims too, same as I have...except mine is the bronzed look with Chrome cap

The hood, wheels, tires and lift totally make the truck! I love it!
