Correct. A couple of my buddies have them and seem to like them. Figured I would give them a try. Compared to the Nittos and Goodyear’s I’ve run in the past the price was hard to pass up.

Make sure you do updates on how you like them. Their price is certainly hard to pass

It has begun, but for those with Katzkin installations (or experience DIY-ing it), should I be aiming for less wrinkles from the start?

Not quite sure why the left side bolster has no wrinkles but the right side does. An installer Ive talked to said sun and heat would even out the wrinkles but Im not sure. (BTW Im just referring to the seat back...the seat bottom has not been fastened down yet so there are no clips keeping the leather stretched)

Little over on the rear axle and GVWR, hows she handling that load?
Not bad considering I eyeballed everything haha. I put timbrens on. The truck handled very nice even with the soft thuren suspension. Only real gripe would be the timbrens. My back is kinda bad and it was for sure rough.....after hour 6 the bumps were hurting pretty decent. But for the price and as often as I tow now gotta say they performed as advertised. I drove 65-70 with zero issues

When you watch them do it on TV they are always using steam--Would that help take the wrinkles out????? I don't know----

I have a (cheap) garment steamer that didnt seem to help.....not sure if its just not capable enough or if I didnt use it correctly or what.

I might pull the cover off and try again. To me its odd only the right side is wrinkled, the left bolster looks fine.

Don't have Katskins but I put Clazzio leather seat covers on mine a couple years ago and they looked like that for a couple weeks. But they did smooth out and form to the seat eventually, I'm assuming Katskins are similar...
