geswek Posted July 14, 2016 Posted July 14, 2016 I hated my Mayhem wheels so I went and bought Method NV in 18s. I should have bought these in the first place. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 3

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Looks good. How do you like the 275/70/18 KO2? You think a tune is necessary for overall ride/speedo correct? Looking at this exact same tire in my '16 - same rear end and engine size as well. Edited July 14, 2016 by ChevyRoofer

I drove back from Texas about week and half ago with a 6x12 Uhaul VAN trailer. I would say probably 2500lbs. 13mpg at average of 72mph. I took them out in the forest awhile back; they were amazing--great grip no issues. Definitely like them. However, once I tuned the truck it was way better. With the heavy tires the tranny didn't know what to do--it drove like a dog.

Will be getting a tune from BBP then when I upgrade to the bigger tire/5100s.

On highway I get 19; speed hasn't really affected much. I know the last time I went to Texas it was average 85mph on highway and the MPG were around 19.3.
Silvern Sentry Posted July 23, 2016 Posted July 23, 2016 I always look at the tires first and those are nice. Am I the only one that does this?
wuznme Posted July 23, 2016 Posted July 23, 2016 I like those and was looking at them, also the Black Rhino Mint wheel, looks similar but has a little concave look to it. Doesn't matter now though, dropping the truck instead...

I assume these are 18x9, but what’s the offset? +18, 0, or -18?
