So that's why Nick said go with the 16 x 8's...a little more height wouldn't hurt me at all. I haven't had to cut anything since those tires went on...just cranked the t-bars and put a little air in my bags on the back.
The guy at the tire shop said I don't have any turning stops, thus I can...
My truck now has 43k on it...since 10k it got new tires, the 285 Silent Armors in my sig (stock rims). So far I've gotten 30k out of these, and that's been towing almost all the time. It's been a good ride...love the tires...BUT...

What a beast...I'd love to feel that one in the passing lane...:eek:
Grady...whichever tune you settle on (85 was my fav) it takes time for the tranny to learn it. I was always nervous leaning on it until it ran for a while.
Passing without a trailer is something else...we just got back from a weekend out in the RV to a state park in the boonies. It was a great test for my wireless equipment.
Of course, my wife has to hit the local casinos...so we were out on the highway with no trailer. I pull out to pass and...
First off, let me welcome you to our site Pugwinkle!
The material is likely a fiberglass coated plywood. I would hestitate running any screws into it to get it home until you verify how to replace it without the screws showing. Some pics would help, as would a phone call to a dealer that sells...
