That’s the size I’m lookin for looks good how’s the ride never had BFGoodrich before I have the 285/55/20 Hankooks that came with mine.

Ride is pretty good for an all-terrain type tire.  Rear end skips around occasionally when going though thru sharp mid-corner bumps.  Not sure if that's the tires or the suspension though.

Looks really good, how noisy are they at freeway speeds?

I’ve never had aggressive tires before so that’s hard for me to answer.  They definitely have a howl to them but it’s just my weekend ride so it doesn’t bother me.

Got it, thanks for the reply. It will help me with my decision on new tires.

Good looking truck, where did you get the 4X4 badges from? They are pretty cool looking.

I only trimmed the fender liners! I took out quite a bit but now they fit no rubbing with normal driving on the street and in parking lots. Even in reverse full lock, no rub.  
I don't do much off roading but they would rub most likely.

Been a little while since you posted this. How you like the set up? No major rubbing?

Yea Im loving it man. Only time it rubs is when I back out of the driveway and its at like halfway turned. Its rubbing on the plastic cap on the cab corner. Its very minor and I dont intend on doing anymore trimming. If i turn it full lock it moves past and doesnt rub.

[mention=210948]IronVilkas[/mention] I'm running 275/65/20 right now and love the extra height, but the Nitto G2s are almost done after 70k miles and I want to go with something wider while keeping the height. The setup you did looks great and is probably the tallest tire you can fit with a level.

 

I need to change wheels anyway, these came with the truck, 20x8.5 +35, they keep the tire tucked pretty far with the offset.d124cdd4effedcde865209c6575c75b7.jpge0d7d0a709f769317529c38238689c29.jpg

    • Enjoy the new truck, it’s a beauty. I’m glad you’re keeping the OBS, I love those old trucks. 
    • With large equipment or deep mud it is more of a use the higher gear to avoid spinning tires, getting stuck because of spinning tires and doing damage to your machine. The idea is if you run out of torque before you spin tires you can still downshift for more torque. If you are just spinning your tires in the lowest available gear you are stuck and things break.   Automatic transmissions, traction control and electronic transfer cases change the calculation a little as you the driver have less control over each piece. 
    • are there any codes? with lots of rust, perhaps disconnect/clean both sides of the connection/examine cable ends (the wires) for corrosion going into the sheath & replace if necessary/reconnect ALL the power AND ground cables between the battery, engine, frame, cab, fuse box and starter charm.li (website) has a no-start diagnostic procedure you can work through to get it working.
    • Its no wonder you've gravitated to the oil types and brands you have in later years after trying certain brands and one being a specialty oil or at least very hard to come by up here and the other would have been a commonly found oil of the era and the vastly different outcomes as a result to using the vehicles in question the same distance for an OCI . It shows what marketing hype can do without actually having the product to back up the claims and that is no different now with the insane claims that are written on the side of a bottle of oil from some of the off the shelf oils.    What has surprised me and I was already finding this out before I bought my truck with the GDI engine, that this newer fancy technology that seemingly would suggest better fuel economy/emissions with this high pressure spray of fuel is not in reality kind at all to the engine or at least the oils life. Yet they insist on claiming long OCI with this technology just like they did with the port or similar type fuel injection systems when in reality its a step back in oil life to have a GDI system.    I think the mistake your making Grumpy is that your not sending your samples to Blackstone and getting the feel good glowing report that you can run it another 1000 or more miles and then send another sample where they say run it yet another 1000 miles and on and on it goes until your sending in something that looks a lot like road tar and then they may suggest you change your oil within the next 1000 miles 😆
    • I am guessing that engines of that design back then had a better ability to be abused and survive longer than a new design engine with the long timing chain and the overhead cams and phasers etc. But I would never guess that an engine could go that far and not fail spectacularly or at least die a slow death.
