So, finally, at last, driving the 1008. Prety harsh on GAS (converted) but bought this for a plow truck and heavy hauler...
Anyways, had bought Pro Comp 295/75/16's which i put on the stock rims. On full lock right turns the left tire hits the pitman arm.
Thinking a little less back space (4" instead of 4.5") might solve the problem. Need wider rims eventually as the tire mfr calls for 7-9" rim and they are indeed bulging in the center tread section.
Have to check runout on the rims, they all balanced out, but one was heavier than the others. Getting a vibration at highway speeds. Then again, the driveshaft has a good sized ding in it, that could also be the vibration...
Thoughts?
