Wheel and Tire Suggestions?
I am thinking about new Tires and Wheels for my 4X2 LE. I currently have the stock 18's.
I after more HEIGHT and the same width so as not to worsen the milage. Any thoughts? Also while I was at it I was wondering if the Brake Dust Covers actually offer any help on the dust issue? TIA |

I am also considering wider tires and bigger wheels. I have done a lot of research on what actual sizes (i.e. wheel/tire combo) will closely match the stock wheel/tire combo on my LE (265/70/R18).
305/55/R20 with Nitto Terragrappler will be great and is faster than stock by about 3mph - Current stock speedometer will read higher. - It will be about 0.6 inches taller than stock 305/45/R22 - will be about 1mph faster than stock and 0.2 inches taller 285/65/R18 with BFG AT will be about 0.07 mph slower and just about the same height 325/65/R18 is prety good as well - about 7mph faster and 2inches taller (might need 2.5" lifts on a RWD) Check out Requests for Pics..Here they are There are several tire size calculators out there and also wheel matching Check out the sites below Cheers http://www.bigwheels.net/index.jsp http://pw1.netcom.com/~sgalaba/tiresize.htm

don't forget if you go taller you are going to lose some performance, if you go really tall you should seriously consider stepping up to a higher rear gear ratio.

hey le TITAN, if its not too much trouble could you downsize your sig a bit. most of us have been using no bigger than 400-500 pix. some of the other members dont have broadband and it really takes a long time for them to load. thanks in advance, and nice truck.
