Tire questions and Emblem problem
Tire questions and Emblem problem
Just phoned the Stealership for 2 emblems for the centre caps on 18 inch wheels on my 2004 FX4, they do not sell them, I have to buy the whole centre cap for $110 apiece..........Off the salvage yards I go!
A question for everyone..........I have the stock Goodyear Wranglers ATS's (6 ply) on the vehicle right now with the factory trailer package, I will need tires by fall, I hardly pull anything heavy, a boat to the lake a few times a year, a small trailer to the garbage dump occasionally and a Bobcat on a trailer 20 miles twice a year. I am leaning towards the Silent Armour tires, the question is will the 4 ply Silent Armour's handle this? The other question is if I decide to go to the 10 ply Silent Armour's how much ride comfort will I lose? Also if I go with the 10 ply tires what air pressure should I keep in them (I am currently running 40 psi). Also what is your opinions on Nitrogen filled vs air filled?

If you go with the LR E (10 ply) tires, you can expect a slightly harsher ride, but you will have better handling and towing than the P series (4 ply). If you get the LR E run them at 50, which will handle anything within specs of your truck. If you get the P series, you will need to run them at 35. Anything over that does not handle more weight, just stiffens the tire a bit more, but may cause some extra tire wear.
Here is a link to a list of tires in that size. 5 come in a LR C, including the Goodyear you currently have, Bridgestone, and Firestones. I have heard good things on the Firestone Destination A/Ts.
