Thanks, love the look.. if I may inquire a little more ....are you using spacers and is the offset different from stock rims?.

Alright then. Pulled the trigger on a set of Duratracs, 265/75R16. Pics once they are mounted.

Can’t wait to get off and go play in some snow.
FYI- 265/75R16(C) Balanced with airsoft bbs.

With airsoft bbs? Tires look great

Yeah I tried the customary stick on and hammer on weights, but they wouldn’t behave. May be a balancer issue, but IDK. I’ve used the bbs in larger tires and they perform great. About 5 oz in each tire. A little www research indicated that the Duratracs can be contrary when balancing.

I haven’t heard that trick. I will have to keep that trick under my hat

If you google it you can find pages with the right formula per size and weight of the tire.

Great idea. Wouldn’t have to worry about loosing a wheel weight

No spacers, the wheels have a -8mm offset. The stock i believe is set a 0 offset

The stock wheels are like a +30

When I found a set of Sport wheels I was on the fence with which tires to get. Truck came with 245 /75 -16.

Seeing how all my off road driving is on the beach, I didn't want too aggressive of a tread. You spin a knobby tire on the beach and you'll dig a hole fast.

Kinda wanted to go taller, but it would have been just for looks, plus I didn't wanna mess up my gas mileage too much.

Seemed the perfect tire for me was the Toyo Open Country AT's. I went with 265 /65/- 17. Almost the exact same height as my factory tires, and maybe an inch wider.
