Default Upgraded to 295 Ws

Got a good deal on a new set of 295/45/20s which are W rated on the speed index. Thats good for 168mph, if i get there. They are Continental Cross Contact UHP 114W. What a big setup from the 285/50 Vs... truck handles way better and is even quicker with the lighter weight. The grip to the road is amazing as well. 120 feels like 40mph literally.

thanks fellas. Im still playing with height, so I will have more pics later. I think I need to go up a heir upfront I need it to sit dead level. So 1/4 turn will do the trick.

nice. how tall are they? Im about to need a new set on my SS 20s and I want to go just a tad shorter than the 275/55s. There probably pretty close actually since yours are a little wider and brings the sidewall out a little more. But I think the 55s are just too big.

I have the same Continental cross contact UHP tires on my truck, mine are 285/50ZR20 and i plan on going with the 295/45ZR20 next time around.
