for my 2015 ram cummins 2500, I plan to put firestone transforce on my right rear and thunderer CLT on the left rear.

They have the same specs, size 275 70 18, the only main thing is they have different brand.

Is that ok? Would the difference be negligible performance wise?

Just curious.

Want to get info. Thanks

I was always told obviously that 4 matching tires is the best but if you can't do that have the same for rear left and right and then different tire for front left and right

Tires can be taller or shorter brand to brand in the same size.

I would make very sure they are the exact same height.

measure tread depth make sure they are no more than 3/32nds of tread depth apart also look at tread pattern you dont want a street tire on one side and have a m/t tire on the other

id put the different tire as my spare and put the spare transforce into rotation. a different brand tire from the rest would drive me nuts.
