Re: New guy, new truck...today
Thank you all, bought this fella from trapperjack here on the forum. Just finishing up on a complete brake job. Got my tires in a few days ago. 9:00-16 big ol things.

from the SoCal high desert. Lots of smart folk here. Whatever the problem, somebody already fought that dragon, so jump in and ask.

from California! Nice to see another Highboy on here! What size of lift did you install to fit the 9:00-16 tires? It looks good!

Wow, looks cool! I've been contemplating putting that wheel and tire combo on my Highboy but just was not sure of the fitment of that tire. Did you use the camper special rims that are 9.75" wide?

Re: New guy, new truck...today
Those tires are amazing! I've always liked the looks of them. Do they feel or handle different than regular tires?

Unfortunately on my first test drive after my brake job and tire install the pick up tube inside the gas take parted ways with me, left me strandedpopeyes71 wrote:Wow, looks cool!
