Pulled the trigger - great call!

Tsbot · Oct 3, 2015

Well I finally pulled the trigger on wheels and tires after much debate and asking around here. I couldn't be happier! I can't believe how much it changes the look of the truck - exactly what I wanted! Thanks for the input.

Nice!!! How's the ride? I think I am going to go with 17" or 18" when its time. I need some extra side wall for the beach.

Gives the truck a great look!

The ride feels good - maybe a little softer, but I only drive it home from the shop - today we're hitting fire road for a family hike on the Pacific Crest Trail so I'll report back.

I was looking at them for my truck I think you made a great choice

Nice wheels! Awesome tire choice too! I can't wait to burn the tires off my truck. That will take me forever though since I have winters and summers. 15,000km a year each lol

Was thinking the same thing, at least until winter and they start throwing rock down. I drive a mountain pass to work.

Man that looks great - I gotta see the final product, curious - I think that would look great too though.

Looks great! Where did you get them from; local or online?

Tsbot · Oct 4, 2015

Local - they actually mounted 2 wheels and threw them on so I could see - fun experience.

Stock suspension or leveled?

CMil527 · Oct 5, 2015

2" level.

I'm am super happy with how it turned out. I just learned on another thread I started about programming the EVIC to match the sizes. One person said their dealer charges $250. Not sure if I wanna pay that just to get accurate speed/mpg etc. It's only off 4 MPH at 70 MPH. So if the readout says 70, I'd really be doing 74 - that's as fast as I really ever went on the freeway, and the gap narrows the slower you go.

Pulled the trigger - great call!
