Bleh. I dodn't know why I'm making it so hard. I finally thought of a good analogy.

Which would you rather try to move by kicking it a volleyball or a solid iron ball the size of a volleyball?

Same with your truck it can turn a lighter wheel easier than a heavy one.

Sorry about the confusing previous attempts. over and out.

i understand that you don't have a spindle lift....

i just remenber that when you put in your limiting sraps( because of the spacer and the bump stop problem) you said something like you thought about getting lift spindles...... so i thought if you were getting new tires that maybe to think ahead about the spindle so you don't buy new 16in tires then a month later you want lift spindles and have to buy bigger rims and your new tires will not fit....

thats all, sorry for the miss conution

and my spelling sucks,maybe i need to put that back in "my" sigdodgeram5.9

I'd rather be going 70MPH in the desert than 40MPH in a mudhole.
