As far as getting everything centered, here’s what I did. And keep in mind, I’m a banker, not an engineer. Starting with the backside washers. Used a socket that fit the hole in the wheel to get the washer centered on the hole. Double sided tape on the washers to hold them in place. Placed...
Thu Hmmwv lug nuts are too wide…the socket won’t fit in the hole. But I agree, the ones I put on look like crap. If you can find a better option I’d go for it.
I didn’t rebalance them after I put on the hardware and it’s all good as far as I can tell.
Zero complaints. Ride quality is great. I’ve only put a couple thousand miles on them though, so not much tread wear. Been happy with them off road too, huge improvement over the old MTs they replaced. For the price, they can’t be beat.
Gladly.
