I've had my new wheels and tires on for awhile now. Finally got time to post pics. Rims are 24" Echelon Korum's & Tires are 37x13.5x24 Toyo Open Country M/T... Let me have it...

how did the low profiles affect the ride? I am thinking it rides alot rougher now? Running the stock BFG's on mine.

Does ride rougher.. but not as bad as I thought it would get. Thanks for the compliment. I've noticed a lot of heads turning lately. Plus a lot of people that are running terra grapplers on the trucks, H2's & Fullsize p/u, are asking about the tires... 24" mud tires are a surprise to a lot of people.. Sorry for the crappy camera phone pics.. I'll get the digi out one day and take better ones...

What did you pay for those tires each?

Cut off about an inch of those nerf bar brackets to pull them up tighter.

Can't remember the price per tire... I know the retail for that tire @ Discount Tire was something like $750 each, because I bought the certs' from them to replace the tires, but they also did not carry the toyo's regularly so that was a price they got from hq to retail for... I'll call the tire wholesaler for my shop to see what the price was that I paid.... As for the nef bar bracket.. I've been wanting to do that.. Just haven't had the time... Maybe next week sometime I"ll take on that project.

Whoa. I was thinking about doing my 1979 Oldsmobuick with a lot of chrome like that, but it makes me easy too spot for the process servers, you know?

4rnRootsH2SUT,
Have you had any rubbing issues with the new rim and tire setup? On the highway, is the ground noise from the grapplers much more than the stock tires? Did you upgrade your brakes?

Nice bling job. Stay with the chrome for the rest of the truck. Our truck will blind you with the bling. Plus it is yellow so it is extra colorful.
