86 views no comments? anyone got any recomendations for what drop a 2/3 or a 3/4?

 

Dude what do you want from us??. Get some real tires and we'll talk... I would drop it oh i don't know how about a block away??...
















PS. J/K

 

What do ya want us to tell you? You put on a set of GENERALs, which are basically stock tires on the newer trucks...

Nothing for us to get all excited about
But hey, glad you like em.

 

Just make sure the load rating for those smaller tires covers GVWR of your truck.

 

is this what you want....NICE TIRES! happy?

 

there far from stock style. but heh i dont spent alotta money on wear items and they are actually good tires im told. they are hard compound and last a long time. and i can ride through about 3 inches of water at about 40mph and i dont hydroplane like i did on the stock goodyears that came on the truck. im very pleased with how they tires handle in both wet and dry conditions and at 74 bucks each i beleive best bang for buck and the weight load rating is correct 1950lbs is the weight limit on these tires.

 

I'll stick with my Revos But if you like em, good for you Hope they turn out to be good.

Edit to add: I was just looking at the pics, and are those CAR TIRES??

 

no sport truck tires... max tire pressure in them they hold 1950lbs.. they are more then adequet for my truck since i dont haul anything around anymore.

 

Never did understand why people would want to put smaller than stock tires on their trucks or lower their trucks for that matter. If you want a car go out and buy one. No offense faster150 but if thats what you are planning on doing with your truck I am glad you removed that sig.

 

nah i didnt remove it. i just want better highway stability. lower center of gravity and its easier to lower the tire size than change the rear end gears. no to mention smoother ride and my mpg went up. less wire weight to spin. also my truck doesnt get squirly in the rain. and everyone has there preference and i dont like slaming trucks to the ground. but i also dont like there to be alot of wheel well gap nor big huge tires. but im just doing a 2/3 drop.and ill still have about 5" of ground clearance

 

5"? That means you can clear a speed bump. No thank you. I thought my stock tires were too small and the wheelwells had a big gap, so I upsized. They aren't huge, but they aren't small either.
