what tires i need?

a3ftgiant · 02-13-2008, 01:05 AM

im going to be lowering the back end 2" since i cant lift it. 2wd. Is there any special kind of tires that i need to be looking for? I would like them to be thin for a sportier look. Rims will be 20s or 22s. truck is also getting painted black. The only towing i do is a samurai or some 4 wheelers both very light loads.

are you going to be hauling with it and from the video it looks like you kinda take it wheelin
pro comp offers alot of tires in many sizes and in many load ranges it all depends on what you intend to use it for

u should get the e rated tires..not sure about lowering the back..itd make more sense to level the front..you can pt lift spacers in the front...then put ur 20s or 22s under there and youll have a little more sidewall

itll cost less then lowering it and youll be happier with the result

dont tow much of anything just normally two four wheelers on a little trailer. dont do any wheeling looking for some street tires preferably low profiles. probably will raise the front after looking at the space and things.
