NJx72 05-20-2007, 10:13 PM So I finally got my rims and tires on, it looks great and drives even better. The tire is a Toyo A/T 305/55R/20 and the rims are Ultra Predator 20x9s with a +14 offset. It handles great in the rain, and amazing on dry pavement, pretty good in some dirt too *grin*. Here's some pics, will post more up later when the weather is a little better! http://www.flickr.com/photos/8471476@N08/ 1969Crossram 05-20-2007, 10:25 PM I like it!!! salmandmx 05-20-2007, 10:29 PM Looks great! I have the same set up. Had to do some trimming and cutting on the inside and torsion bars cranked. Just rubs a little. Do u have leveling kit? Tires rubbing? Here is a pic of my 1 day old rig. http://dieselplace.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=39488&stc=1&d=1179675084 bajaman 05-20-2007, 10:31 PM Same set up... what pressure are you running and did you recalibrate the TPMS? http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/showthread.php?t=156969 NJx72 05-20-2007, 10:33 PM I cranked the T-bars, trimmed and cut a little, the truck looks so much beefier and sits alot higher up, it's mean lookin! Ricers are really afraid now... salmandmx 05-20-2007, 10:36 PM Same set up... what pressure are you running and did you recalibrate the TPMS? http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/showthread.php?t=156969 60 PSI all fours. However, it does say check rear right tire pressure every once in a while. Talked to the dealer and he said he has to go in and change something and the message will go away. Said it wont take 5 minutes. But its ONLY that tire that is throwing the code. Sweet ride u have there! I cranked the T-bars, trimmed and cut a little, the truck looks so much beefier and sits alot higher up, it's mean lookin! Ricers are really afraid now... I assume you are rubbing just a touch on sharp turns? NJx72 05-20-2007, 10:38 PM Yeah, I kinda forgot to put the sensors on the new tires...so my lights on and I get the Service message, is the sensor in the valve stem? I really don't wanna have to take the whole setup apart... And nope, I took care of all rubbing problems, sawzall :) bajaman 05-20-2007, 10:38 PM I had 65psi for 2 weeks, dropped it to 55 today, man what a major difference NJx72 05-20-2007, 10:41 PM Yeah I've got mine at about 50ish and they ride pretty nice. salmandmx 05-20-2007, 10:41 PM Yeah, I kinda forgot to put the sensors on the new tires...so my lights on and I get the Service message, is the sensor in the valve stem? I really don't wanna have to take the whole setup apart... It is. I had the dealer put it in before I picked up my truck. Mine is throwing a check rear right tire pressure code for just a few seconds and then it goes away. You'll have to get those installed and they have to go in and change something in the computer and the message will go away. He is going to clear the code for me tomorrow. However, to put the sensors on takes about 30 mins a tire. Or at least thats how long it took the dealer to do it! NJx72 05-20-2007, 10:43 PM Oh damn...I wonder how I'm gonna do this, it better not take them more than a day. bajaman 05-20-2007, 10:44 PM ok, whats the recommended pressure for these tires?? NJx72 05-20-2007, 10:44 PM 65 psi salmandmx 05-20-2007, 10:46 PM ok, whats the recommended pressure for these tires?? U can run em as low as 50psi, the max is 65psi. I usually run mine at 60psi. Best for driving or light towing. to me 50psi rides a little squishy and hurts the mpg's a bit. If u are pulling heavy load then I'd go ahead and run the max in it. But only while towing 8k+. bajaman 05-20-2007, 10:46 PM 65 is MAX cold....Ive never run a tire at max load salmandmx 05-20-2007, 10:49 PM Oh damn...I wonder how I'm gonna do this, it better not take them more than a day. Go to a good tire shop. Those guys are usually better than the dealer. The dealer will make it an all day ordeal. If u take it to em early in the morning, he should have it done well before lunch. NJx72 05-20-2007, 10:49 PM Hmm..maybe I'll air em up to 60 tomorrow. bajaman 05-20-2007, 10:49 PM U can run em as low as 50psi, the max is 65psi. I usually run mine at 60psi.

Cool.. thats what I was thinkin Another issue maybe you guys will run accross; my brake controller will not operate my trailers electric brake acuater... any ideas?? salmandmx 05-20-2007, 10:50 PM Oh damn...I wonder how I'm gonna do this, it better not take them more than a day. Well NJx72, I forgot! You are throwing a code on your DIC so u are gona have to take it to the dealer for them to clear it. Just call and set an appointment. Thats gona be alot faster than just showing up! NJx72 05-20-2007, 11:06 PM Dealership has to change the oil this week anyway, so I'll prolly get it sorted out then. | ||
