Default Finally!!!!!!!!!

So I finally got my truck to stop shaking just had my 35/12.5/20s installed just rides smooth on the highway. I guess I just got a bad set of tires. The 35s look perfect on the truck and no rubbing at full crack, I do have 1/4 spacers. I will get some pics up later. So for all those questions about 35s with a leveling kit here you go!

I hope you got a full credit for the 33's. With the spacers you will be fine with the 35's turning full radius, your only issue may be on some bigger bumps, especially the off-road kind.

A hunting buddy of mine has a friend who got 33" Cooper Zeon LTZs or at least the metric equivolent on his Cheby Z71 and got the royal run around from the tire store for basically the same thing. Since he did a 3" lift to fit 'em at the same time, the tire store kept blaming the body lift (yeah, right! I've seen leveling kits do it, but a body lift, come on!)

Finally got them to change to 33" Mickey MTZ's they had in stock and the vibration went bye-bye. Now he's fighting with them and Cooper (who owns Mickey Thompson now) on crediting the Coopers. The tire store basically stalled him till after their "30 day policy" period.

Are there no more reputable business' left?

Man, they look great! A lot better than the 33's on there!
I still think that's the best looking tread pattern offered on a true A/T tire!

Those 35's on the stock wheels with spacers look like they give you about the same footprint and aggressive stance as my 35's on my 4.5" backspaced Mickey Thompson wheels...
