I am in love with the look and reviews of the Toyo Proxes ST II's. Debating between 305 40 22's or 305 45 22's

 

If I didnt have 3.55's I would have went with the 45's too. Being on a 9" rim, the tire is prob close to a 45 series with the buldging.

 

I have 3.55's myself, any loss of power and mpg's? How is the ride?

 

Loss of power and braking was felt as soon as i pulled out of the tire shop, but that was to be expected.

I reset MPG's, but only drove about 20 miles of mixed country/suburbia so cant say yet.

Ride is no doubt "stiffer" and sportier. Rode like a caddy before, no rides like a caddy with 22's

Now included in the PTM, Lowering, and Grille work will be some bigger brakes. Not needed, but with the amount of towing I do it will be worth the peace of mind. Again, not required, just for my piece of mind.

 

i was gonna tell you about this thread but looks like you beat me here

looks good smokin

 

nice wheels!! I have a buddy that is a parts manager at a dealership and he told me $8 each..... Man thats expensive!!

 

Nice looking truck, those wheels go great with it!

 

Tasca has them for $8.46 each.

 

Thats a good price stealth. If I had patience I would have looked online but my wheels were on the way and I was in a dumb rush.

I'm headed out to go grab some GF shackles for the rear, those look easy enough for me to put on in the driveway. Hopefully giterdone today!!

 

I dont know anyone in a parts store that sells GF shackles, but maybe there is a truck outfitter shop near you that carry's them

 

time to update your pictures

 

Heck yea!! Thanks again for all your help today, I still feel really bad about taking up so much of your time. Dinner/beers on me next time!! Ill get some pics up up tomorrow if I get home bfore dark.

I measured again and got exactly 36" on both front, 36 1/4" rear driver and 37 3/4" on that rear pass. Got me stumped, ill have to get under in the light again and hope something sticks out.

 

maybe start a thread in the 2009-2010 section and see if anyone else is having a leaning issue

 

So SMOKEin, do your lug nuts look like this?

 

That is HOT!
