I have an 05 kr and just turned 36000miles

everythings great but the tires are showing their age. I dont know much about wheels or tires but i do like the look of some of the bigger, offroad looking kind of tires.
How big of a tire can I go without it rubbing on the inside?
Also, I really like the oem 20's out now (06 and up) anybody got a set of those that they are willing to part?

thanks!

 

get a 2.5 AS leveling kit and put you some 33's or 35's under there

 

If you dont mind me asking, how expensive is that?

 

tire prices will vary per brand and size, but a leveling kit will run you around 250-300 bucks. spend the extra cash and get a readylift leveling kit. alot of leveling kits have urethane spacers, but readylifts are made of 1/4 inch steel.

all in all, with my 33" nittos and the leveling kit, it ran me around 1100 bucks.

 

Most leveling kits are less than $100. Now, you might wind up with $200 or $300 in it if you buy the kit and then pay someone to install it and the cost of a front end alignment. I'd recommend the Autospring leveling kit.

 

Man you got violated

By the way Autospring makes one of the best leveling kits and it is made of steel and has a Lifetime Gurantee

 

not really. the leveling kit was 340 after tax, installed( here in mobile its easy to get violated by the 9% sales tax!) the tires ran around 170 or 180 apiece, plus nitrogen. thats about what the going price is around here for that stuff.

 

thanks for the replies guys! BTW do any of yall have a set of oem 20's laying around that you wouldn't mind getting rid of for a good price? let me know.

 

$1100-1250 plus shipping is pretty much the going price for a set of stock 20" take-offs.

 

In contrast, that's really not that bad afterall. I got a quote in FLowood MS at Rick's Pro Truck for $550 installed and I laughed at them and hung up the phone. I installed my AS 2" for $89.00 shipped and $59.95 for the alignment

 

550! wow. I did the same thing 89 Shipped plus I think my alignment was 49.

 

I love the wheels you have on your truck, If you dont mind me asking, how much did they run for and how much of a lift would I need for those to clear?
thanks.

 

i would have a better chance of sprouting wings and flying into space than i would of installing it myself and it not coming out looking like fred flinstones car!

 

so its as simple as the autospring spacers in the front to make it higher and thats it? sounds easy!
