Method 703 is 28 pounds and MT BB in SL is 48 pounds? That’s light. I wonder why the AT4s in the same size are 53. Wider maybe. My 275/70/18 AT4s run crazy wide compared to the size.
Any question I ask in there it seems like a dozen guys want to tell me how stupid I am versus helping. This forum either attracts calmer people or is far better moderated.
For some reason after 3500 miles on my E load Falkens I’ve got 17/32 on the inner tread and 16/32 on the outer. I run 33-34 psi cold which i thought would be plenty. A bit puzzling.
Question for you guys. I’ve put 3500 miles on Falken E Load 275/70/18s running about 33 PSI cold. That’s the most comfortable PSI. I just bought a tread depth gauge and the outer tread is reading 16/32 and the center tread is reading 17/32. That indicates under inflation. Anyone have any...
I mean, for starters our trucks are 5400 pounds curb weight. Sit taller. No air dam. It’s really not that surprising we don’t get the same gas mileage. Also the variability makes sense because we may get good mileage on a lower wind day going 60mph. We have a larger swing.
Yup. I am surprised how little 0.8” and 20 pounds per corner reduced gas mileage. But my theory is that the electric motor is doing the hard work of moving the tires from stop on acceleration. On deceleration there is more inertia to charge the battery. So there is some offset there. That...
Oh this is super helpful. I may be buying a second set of wheels for when I’m in the city - so I can get some standard load tires in this size (the same Falkens) - so method 703 with +35 offset here? Do they offer +30? I may want an itty bit of poke.
I’ve got a similar question - I am going to run two different sets of wheels for different applications. Currently running Wildpeak 275/70/18 on the TH wheels (I think +25 offset but I can never remember). The wildpeaks have the perfect poke on this setup but they run incredibly wide for a...
