Looks outstanding!

I took delivery of my truck but am waiting on the checker plates to arrive. Please share your thoughts on their installation and any rust/corrosion concerns you have if any.

This could mean that his real speed "could be" closer to reality. Mine, with original tyres, shows 4% faster speed on the speedometer compared to the GPS speed.

Same here. I think it's saved me a low level speeding ticket or 2!

Hey, I am glad we got to meet and get you your gear, The Rig looks amazing, those tires really look good, I will get working on your other items asap.

Hope you have a safe drive back, and I am sure we will see each other agin soon.

My local Costco would only mount the same tires that are OEM to the car. I have to take the wheels off myself and drop them off if I want tires changed from them.

Congrats! Report back with any problems running 295's.

Congrats! Report back with any problems running 295's.

Exactly, it looks like there is room, but once you get in some interesting positions, it maybe different

If the tyre diameter is increase, what is the actual effect on the speed readout and miles covered?

Using the GPS speed in Waze, the indicated speed on the Grenadier is 1 mph low at 80 mph. GPS says 80, Grenadier speedometer dash readout said 79. Close enough for me. May not work in some European countries where I've read the speedo cannot show under speed.

Congrats! Report back with any problems running 295's.

None in the 400 miles from Salt Lake to Las Vegas on the interstate. I know, I know.... it feels amazing, like driving an H1 Hummer, with all the strength and solidity, but better.

I think it just looks right with the 33s.

Thank you. I'm happy to say that my wife thinks so, too!

They said that there was a sticky reinforcement pad that went underneath and the rivet holes were treated with something. I don't remember what the stuff was, but my wife said it was something blue?

Yep. I bought them at Costco, who then would not mount them and Warner Ineos saved my bacon today. I owe them such a debt of gratitude.

That's by law, for mechanical speedometers, therefore if I change tires like you did, I would have the same result as you.
