How do you like those tires? I've got them in 22s and haven't mounted them yet. Also got a question about the TPMS, do you know if they installed the ones that bolt on or the rubber ones that are press fit on?

Truck looks good sittin there

To be honest I bought the tires on price but I like them nonetheless.
They balanced well, not a lot of weight, run smooth and quiet and grip real good.
Any UHP tire is going to wear quickly, these have a utog of 420, generals are 320.
If I get 2 summers I'll be happy.
I put Gm TPMS'S in , part # 25920615
these are now inexpensive, $40.00 cdn each.
I wouldn't mind lowering it a little more, but being 4wd, not a real option.

what did you do for tires Mark,

By the way, got the tune double/triple checked and installed, she's a rocket.
Tried to do some logs but L/top battery crapped.

Looks good, I have never seen those wheels on a NNBS before. Those tires are great, I had them in 285/45/22 and they rode nice.
