Awesome! Keep us posted. Very interested in what you settle on!!Thanks dude. I’m going to run 2 sets of wheels / tires. I’ll post pictures once I have it sorted out. My wife is asking me why tf I need so many wheels and tires
OEM Tires from any brand are always a bit lacking. In the Trailhunter case, you have Territory RT tires. They are light and look chunky or sure... also not bad tires. But the real RT tires are the Duratrac RT. That's what I run. They are 10 Ply and HEAVY though. Some of the off roading I do has a lot of Shale and I need that, but if you don't there are for sure options. OEM tires are always a compromise on these trucks, since most people will never see more than a dirt road at best they need to be more comfortable on the road and give better mpg. My tires cost me a good 4mpg, but in my case I'm willing to make that sacrifice.Hey folks! I’m not the happiest with the oem wrangler RT tries as I wanted to be, and since I’ll be up in snowy places in the next month or so, I was thinking of upgrading. Right now my thoughts are landing on something sized at 275-70-r18. So a true 33x10 with the oem rim ~ I don’t think that would impact the spedo too much if at all and would prob fit fine in the spare spot. I would love to get a smaller wheel but I don’t think I can for a while. This is prob enough sidewall for the messes I get into tho!
My question for you folks is has switching to an E load absolutely killed your mpg? Or made the ride insanely harsh?
I think if I could snap my fingers I’d prob get an SL tire but they aren’t really as common in this size unfortunately (minus the Toyo at3 ev tire but I’m not really sure what that is all about??) I think the Nitto terra grappler 3s come in SL too. I would love to live in a world where most of my driving is on dirt but this is also my daily so I’m trying to be somewhat realistic with my choices. This is also my first proper 4x4 truck so I’m trying to lean about all this tire stuff along the way.
Anyway. How much has the heavier tire impacted your driving comfort and mpg? I think the oem tires are around forty ish lbs a tire and the lightest e load in that size I can find is about 50. The oem trailhunter rims are something around 25-28lbs a pop I believe.
