Very quiet on the highway for how aggressive they look. Ride great at 42 psi.

The one on the bottom is running a 4" lift and 9", 0 offset wheels. Took a good bit of trimming to make them fit. I saw the cutting he had to do first hand. The 275 should be close to an inch narrower so should have a better chance however I think you could have issues even with those tires with the wheel offset you are looking at. If cutting doesn't bother you by all means go 295s

How much cutting and trimming was required on the 295? I am debating on what size tires I want. Right now considering 305/55/20 then after that I may go 295/60/20 with a 4" lift. I am changing to +15 offset Eagle alloy series 014 rims. Same thing that's on the black widows from Southern Comfort.

 

Think there will be a lot of trimming required?

MNF!

 

Should add specs... 18-inch Method Mesh wheels with 275/70/18 Bridgestone A/T Revo 2s. Loving these Revo2s compared to the BFG ATIIs I started with... they ride MUCH smoother and actually balanced out, instead of shaking the whole truck apart. 2.5-inch level, no rub.

You should be able to get by only trimming plastic with that setup but not 100% sure

By plastic, do you mean the front air dam / air valence?

Yes, that and the rear of the fender well liners.

Looks great. What's the stats on the setup? Wheel size, offset and tire size?

I wanted to go back to something "more stock", thinking about taking 1" of lift off, but we'll see

 

2.5" Level + 1.5" Body Lift

22x9" OEM CK158 Wheels

305/45R22 Nitto Terra Grappler

No Rubbing / No Trimming

 

This is the best pic I have so far, will post more...the trucks sits level, but the stockers are in the bed so it looks nose high in this pic

How much money have you spent changing your rims and tires?!

Cumulatively I've actually made money, on all the mods I have on the truck as a matter of fact! It's all about buying low and selling high :)

well in that case can you buy something low and sell it to me a little above high! i would have bought the BMF rims and the MOTO Metal rims from you.

    • 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.
