Default New Tires!

Got new tires on my Ram until I get the factory 2500 axles. What do you guys think? My other tires were 225s off a Jeep Liberty because some a**hole kids slashed my other ones (only did 2 insurance won't cover it unless are 4 are slashed).

FYI that was 950lbs sitting in the bed. They loaded the pallet with a forklift. Didn't sag at all, not even an inch (I measured).

What are you talking about I bought new tires just so I can have weight in the back and my bald tires get traction . I like to tell everybody that truck is an old Highway Police vehicle Off Road Division. Some think that's cool others are like never heard of that.

Hadn't considered the weight aspect. Although, that seems rather expensive simply for weight..... I would have happily loaded you up with dirt for half price.

I got asked about the white door regularly too.....

Dirt didn't look as good though I painted the bed black (that's why it's blue on the inside) but the door I never got around to it lol

Oh my apologies sir I didn't know you had such fancy taste in your dirt. I myself have been a dirt specialist for 12 years and I will be the judge of this "high quality" dirt
