Looks realy good. thumb.gif I have the same brand of tires on my truck too. So far I like how the feel on the road.



How are those tires holding up? I am lookin at the same ones. Are they a loud tire goin down the road? Thanks


They are holding up pretty well so far. Have about 4500 miles on them and the still look new. They are not loud going down the road, Just a slit hum is all. With the radio on at a normal level I can't even here them.

are those rims ok to run in snow and cold. I have aftermarket rims on and the tire dealer told me the warranty would be void if I run them in the winter.

I have winter tires on the oem rims which I put back on from mid Nov to mid MArch.

thanks

They look great, you have had more sets of wheels on that truck then I have had sets of tires on mine.

If this is a winter tire/wheel set up why didnt you just have winter tires put on the OEM wheels? its you choice and like I said it looks good but im guessing those wheels were not free!

I think it would be fine to run any wheel in the winters as long as you try and keep them clean from salt.

Yeah I had some different tires on my stock 18s, so I had my stock tires and then stock rims with tires mounted to them. I sold the rims and both sets of tires and got these rims and tires. I like how they look better than my stock rims and they really didn't cost me very much sense I got them from a friend who owns a tire shop. I may just run these year round and sell my 22s

nah, don't sell them 22's. They look awesome on your truck. It'd be a lot of work to swap them between season's but the looks are well worth it thumb.gif Awesome setup.
