Hey Freeborn, Congrats on TC. Looks like you have same truck as mine. Check out my profile and see all the mods I installed on my truck. not sure what year your lance is but your model at 10.6 its going to be heavy. Not sure what dry weight is but I highly recommend weighing truck with full tank of gas, tailgate off, and yourself, spouse? Then weigh your truck/camper fully loaded for trip. If you have the 17 forged aluminum rims I highly recommend the Nitto Terra grapplers 285/70r/17 high load index 3750 lbs. or Nitto Durra grapplers 285/75r/17s high load index rated 3970 lbs. The 19.5 vision wheels and tires would be another option. I found out the hard way my TC is a lot heavier than I realized. Ignorance is not bliss. Ideally I should have purchased a dually especially if you want to haul a 10. 6 TC and also be able to tow. Best of luck.
