Lookin good! are those a direct bolt-on wheel or do they require adapters?

allfiredup · 02-20-2008, 09:49 AM

You have to have adaptors. But it took me about 3 hours & I had never done one before it's very easy (with a shop full of tools). Thanx all I'm really stoked I love it now. Call my bro he is a dealer for the adaptors now. Tim Leslie Tire 586-463-4550 around $800 for the adaptors.

how is the ride compared to your 19.5's?

allfiredup · 02-20-2008, 09:36 PM

I think at least as good or better. I have the fronts at 70 psi & the rears at 65psi to break the tires in. Then I'll let the fronts down to 60-65 & the rears down to about 50. That should make the ride even better. I think the truck steers better also It doesn't seem to follow the uneven spots in the road at all now.

Talked to my bro today the whole package is around 4500. Adaptors wheels & tires. That's with Simutomo tires highways in the front & drive tires in the rear.

that was my next question,,,theres a shop in town that does a lot of these conversions/setups and thats one thing he mentioned was balance/vibration issues

allfiredup · 02-24-2008, 03:06 PM

I put the balancing rings on that my bro uses on semi's. It's fine little vibration around 75 but thats from the rear drive tires because of the aggresive tread & deep lugs. If you used highway tread it woud be fine I'm sure.
