Viper & Hawkeye,

I'll be passing through J-ville on Saturday. Interested in a little run to the beach? I'll call Hawk on Thursday or Friday.

Y'all are gonna make me feel puny with my smaller truck and tires!

My tires and wheels came in today. The wheels(Eagle 1469s) look very nice, but the tires(PC A/T 265/75R16) leave me a little disappointed. They're a little taller than stock, but they're noticably narrower. The sales rep I talked with told me they would be as wide, if not wider than the stockers.

I'm going to clean up the truck this weekend and put them on, weather permitting, and see how they look. I'll post a couple pics for comments..

I have The handling package too and my tires were 265/70r16, are you sure yours are 75? If you went from a 70 to a 75 then it is narrower. Check your stockers again.

oops!

Well color me stupid, they are 70's and the new ones are 75's, so that explains the difference.

I'll have to wait and see how they look on the truck, but I don't think I'm going to like them.

Live and learn.

Well now I am the idiot cause Hawkeye is completely right. Whats so bad is that I build aero tires for goodyear! Feel real safe now huh? The sizes on the aero tires are like tire sizes should be, like a 33x12.50 for example! That way idiots like me know what to buy!

I just got my 33s put an yesterday morning! They really gave the truck a completed look. The tires are 33x12.50 bfg mud terrain km, and I already like them better than the old ones. The mts that I replaced were 32's and they were so bald that the 33's were about 2.5in taller. They are also very quiet on the road. The old ones howled since I got them so bad, my parents refused to drive the truck, the new ones are quiet and the truck is riding smoother(and getting more looks)I am going to post pics when I can.
