Pics Of 06 Sierra With Rwl Out?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Well it looks like i will be keeping my 06 Sierra for now. Dealer wont give me what I want on a trade for an 08. So I am going to need to be getting some tires for the winter. Looking at the Firestone Destinations AT. I just dont know if I want the white letter in or out. My truck is Stealth Grey.

 

Anyone got any pics to help me decide?

dont feel bad. noone is getting what they want for anything including dealers. the GMS discount has halted most used truck sales cause now it makes more sense to buy brand new. so noone is getting nothing close for what they want on trade for anything. either keep what you got or take a hit. fuel prices are not helping either. i personally feel cars and trucks or now price more relistic to where they should be anyway.

I'm looking at getting a set of Firestone Destination A/Ts as well. I am definitely mounting mine blacks out. I feel that the tire is a frame for the wheel and I don't want anything else on my frame. :)

 

Not to steal from your thread but does anyone have experience with P285s? It seems everyone who is running a 285 is using LT tires in a C, D, or E load ranges. Any thoughts?

I can not believe I did not take any pics of my truck when new. I did take these a week or so ago. Only pics I have of my truck.

Letters out, not a fan of the black wall government fashion statement on A/T tires.

It really depends on your personal taste and your truck. I personally think blackwalls wouldn't have looked as good on my truck as the OWL do. I think highway tires usually look better blackwall out and off-road and more aggressive on-road /off-road tires usually look better RWL or OWL out. Just my 2 cents.

Definitely go with the RWL out. :D

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

That way if your ever next to me at a stoplight, my truck will look all that much better. :lol:

i love them

there just big enough to make the truck look good but just small enough to get by without a lift

 

they handle great

 

but still get enough traction to get me through the mud

    • Yes, and also pulling heavy trailers or a large camper up steep grades as well as descending grades such as the more rustic off road camping locations and using engine braking with that low gearing as well as soft ground can just suck the power . I realize pickups these days tend to have an over all lower first gear ratio compared to automatic transmission pickups from years back so that has helped a lot in its ability in high range but there comes a point if in four wheel drive the torque runs out at the wheels, certainly with a gas engine. They don't put two speed transfer cases on pickups for a cool factor, they have a function if one needs that massive torque to the wheels that high range can't deliver. 
    • Notes 7/18/2026   3,400 miles on this batch of Mobil 1 Euro 5W40 since the GDI pump replacement. Alcohol runs very clean when ring seal is tight and the sump isn't getting hosed with fuel. Checked oil level at fill up today as is my practice and grabbed a white Kleenex to look at the color. What color?  I was going to change it but.....  
    • 4 low is really nice on steep boat ramps. 
    • Interesting, I suspect I would have fueled up in Lee Vining as the day prior I would have filled up either in Laughlin or near there and maybe again before I entered Death Valley and once out the other side late that evening as I kept on driving into the night up near Lee Vining. Next morning I most likely fueled up in LV before heading over Tioga Pass into ( as I refer to it as "Yose .... Mite" 😁 ). And again that was 19 years ago but the price then must not have jumped out at me like the 5 bill a gallon theme of nutty cult hippy country Big Sir or head so far up their rear Aspen. I'd be curious to know where the highest prices are in the lower 48, I probably would not be far off to guess somewhere in Cali forn ie. Coldfoot and Prudhoe bay may have those prices beat but that is a whole other world up there and when prices are more normal elsewhere that is about what they can be up there I believe in no mans land. Anyway interesting that the 395 corridor is hosing people and the thing is, its tourist season and its not like there are a lot of competition options when driving up that highway from what I could see. Yup, big ole Boaterhomes and various other RV's ahead and behind me at the Yosemite entrance gate and they have to get their fuel somewhere.  
    • Those can be high, as well as the big California cities. The ones that will pop your eyes out are the 395 corridor on the Eastern side of the Sierra Nevadas. Lee Vining, $7.19 for regular and $8.89 for diesel is what the Google said right now.
