Thats the factory bumpers mine has too. I LOVE those aluminum slots!!!

They were on the truck when I bought it 20 years ago. I have come to like them myself, but being 15s, 35 inch tires are getting harder to find.

Tire selection is the only reason I have 17" rims.

My local tire dealer couldn't get the BFG KO2 in 35X15, had to order them from tire rack. When I had them mounted at the local tire shop they told me BFG no longer makes that tire for a 15 inch wheel. Time will tell.
