Fast or slow? It's not really that big of a difference. Just need to keep track of it.

So faster! Yeah you'll need to keep track of that. It will be adding kilometers faster to the odometer.

The wheels are stock..same with the fender flares? LOL. Came with the truck when we bought it, but we do know it is a special edition truck, as it has features most don't, it seems. I believe Derek informed us of this.
When I drove it home from the tire shop, I didn't notice any great difference in noise, on the streets or highways. Gadgets has drove it a lot more than me since then, so he can chime in if there has been a noticeable difference in noise/vibration. It did throw the spedo out by about 2km/h.

There is most certainly more road noise on the highway. Don't really notice too much in the city. There maybe a little more vibration over all, but you really feel it when accelerating slow from a dead stop, can almost feel every tread. All-in-all I'm happy with them, haven't tried them in mud yet, we kind of need rain to make mud. Our area now has a fire ban <img src='http://www.canadianhummerclub.com/forum ... /blink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':blink:' /> I'm not sure that has ever happened here before. Certainly not that I remember! <img src='http://www.canadianhummerclub.com/forum ... unsure.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':unsure:' />

Yeah Smasher is right, this is a special edition. Derek pointed that out, and when I looked it up sure enough he was right! The dealer I bought it from didn't even know. So I can't give you any special details on the fenders, or wheels.
you can read about it here
