hey guys i need some help, i just got my truck lifted with a 6 in PC stage 1 kit, 18 in wheels and 35 in tires, now when my truck rolls it makes this really weird noise, like a humming noise when i am rolling between 0-5 mph. And now when i apply my brakes after letting the truck sit for a while, they brakes already make squeeking noises? WTF Does anyone else have this problem, any ideas. Never been in 4 wheel drive yet no mud in the caliper, took the tires off sprayed with brake cleaner, nothing works. Any help would be great.:smoke:

Lots of AT and MT tires hum, especially when brand new. And when going from a stock 44 lbs. tire to a 65-95 lbs. tire, especially with a larger diameter, it can put additional stress on the brakes, among other things.

I'm thinking of upgrading to some Power Slot, or maybe some http://www.stillen.com OEM sized rotors and quality pads. Since you are running 18s, consider the Stillen Big Brakes, especially if you tow.
