I just went to the tire place today and they recommended the 305/55R20 Toyo AT2's for my truck on a 2.5" RC level kit. A few questions for you. Any rubbing? Do you need to re-calibrate your speedo/odo? I have 3.42 gears, would I need to change them to run this tire more effectively? Do you just have a level kit also? Thanks!

Thanks! I rub a little but my wheels are x10s and my track width was widened from the 4.5" Zone lift kit. You don't need to recalibrate the speedo as it's off only by a fraction and your 3.42s are fine for that tire as it's relatively light as these tires go. And thanks.

Jaybridge88 Posted December 27, 2016 Posted December 27, 2016 (edited) I finally figured out how to get pics on here. This is a 3.5" lift with 305/55r/20 on 20x10 rims. BFgoodrich KO2s. They rub slightly at full lock in reverse. Edited December 27, 2016 by DunedudeSD 3
15Z71_Chatt Posted December 27, 2016 Posted December 27, 2016 is that a 4 or 6 inch lift with the 35s? Also how are you liking the tires? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk It's a Fabtech 4.5. Love the tires ride good and wear good. They have great road manners in all conditions Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1
Jaybridge88 Posted December 29, 2016 Posted December 29, 2016 So this is kind of on topic off topic. I know there are a lot of wheel enthusiasts on this thread so I'm going to ask. I ordered rim/tire package online. Long story short...they sent the tires mounted and balanced but forgot to put the TPSM in the tires. I had already paid for them and they shipped them separately and told me to send them the install invoice. Still kind of defeats the purpose/incentive of buying a tire rim package online that's "bolt on ready". So, tire shop scratched 3 of my 4 brand new rims. The manager says he knows a guy that can airbrush it and fix them. Has anyone had rims fixed like this? Will the fix last? Thanks for any info. I apologize if this is in the wrong area. Just been on this thread a little recently.

Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk When I first installed the wheels I assumed the TPSM I paid for were installed. I didn't get around to going to a tire place until a week or two after installing the wheels/tires to have them synced to my truck. That's when the tire shop told me there were no TPSM. Then I contacted the online store I purchased the rims/tires from. They had me email them a pic of the valve stems. They could tell from the pic the valvestems were not their TPSMs. That's when they informed me they F@cked up and sent me TPSMs and told me they would reimburse me for the install. Their return policy says once rims are driven on they can't be returned. I guess if you buy online take them straight to a tire shop to check for TPSM if you require a tool.

Either they bite the bullet and send you a new set, as how were you to know they didn't have TPMS, or the installer buys you new wheels they scratched. That is what they have insurance for. Discount Tire scratched my wheels, and they made it right by paying for the tires I just bought (or they said they'd buy me new wheels). Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

Just been on this thread a little recently. The shop that scratched them owes you new wheels, end of story. No cheap repair will be good enough or last. You spent big money on wheels and there are plenty of shops that appreciate that and can mount tires without scratching your wheels. I did mine locally for that reason exactly. I wanted to deal local just in case something like this came up. Sorry to hear but I wouldn't stop until they replaced the wheels they messed up. Anyway, here's a teaser of my new shoes.

Jaybridge88 Posted December 29, 2016 Posted December 29, 2016 I spent $2500 on wheels and tires from Anthem Off Road. The tire shop contacted them to see about a fix. Anthem told them any generic gloss black touch up paint will work. Apparently that's how they fix wheels that have been damaged during shipping. I like the rims. I just can't recommend them due to the way they do business. The local tire shop says the rims are not damaged structurally. It was just the finish. So they just want to follow what Anthem said and use generic touch up paint to fix them.
