    26x9.5x14 QTP on 5.5” Rally Wheels

    oh no question they will mount on the 5.5” wheels but its not ideal, the 5.5” wheels will suck the sidewalls in which will increase the diameter and cause the tire to crown. Also since the tire will be more ballooned or crown more a very low tire pressure will have to be used to maintain a...

    Honest feedback on wheel/tire combo please

    I think it blends pretty well, only thing i would maybe do is go with a 255/50R17 in the rear, the 255/50R17 is only roughly 1/4” bigger all the way around but will give you another 1” of tread width. The little bit of added height in the rear will also even out how the wheel well is filled, it...

    26x9.5x14 QTP on 5.5” Rally Wheels

    i cant tell you its safe, you have to make that judgement on your own. They will mount on the 5.5” wheels but the sidewall will be sticking out about 2” over the front and back wheel lip. It will put added stress on the sidewall but with them being biased tires they are a little more forgiving...

    26x9.5x14 QTP on 5.5” Rally Wheels

    Its doable but its pushing it, 7” would be ideal, 5.5” will make the tire balloon more, will actually increase the overall diameter.

    Drum brake weights interfering with cragar ss wheels

    Most of the aftermarket drums for newer cars and trucks have flat spots milled in the drum in a spot which i assume is to balance, you shouldnt have a issue removing the weights.

    Maximizing BFG Radial T/A Traction

    I run 28-30 psi in the rears and about 35 in the front, have t/a radials all around. Idk why they get such a bad rap, sure if you try to launch at any rpm higher than 4k you will have a hard time getting them to bite, but they grab decent for street tires. That being said you deff can roast em...

    torque specs for wheels

    Torque sticks get a bad rep. If the impact is adjusted properly they work great. I agree on hand torquing wheels, i do on both my bronco and demon but at work it takes too much time, unless its a porsche bmw land rover or go fast car they get hand torqed the rest they get the torque sticks

    Recommend Tires for 2014 RAM 1500 Big Horn

    This is true, however most times the cooper isnt much more than the mastercraft, the mastercraft are decent but dont balance as good as the coopers. Wouldnt hurt the op to check on the price though

    Recommend Tires for 2014 RAM 1500 Big Horn

    Ok op i put together some options, looks like your ram has 275/60R20’s from the factory. any of these will be a better replacement over the goodyears. None on this list should wear out in 40k miles. All mileage posted are the manufacturers ratings, realistically expect to get 5-10k less miles...

    Recommend Tires for 2014 RAM 1500 Big Horn

    Yeah for sure, huh, dodge may have lowered the recommended on the newer years, i agree that is way too much as well, usually 35 psi is good for a half ton pickup with passenger rated tires.

    Still a drag radial is a dot radial regulated tire. The load rating should be similar to the all season in a comparable size.

    torque specs for wheels

    Its also important to remember to go around the lug nuts two or three times to ensure they are all tight, ive tightened lugs up with a torque wrench and the second or third time going around you could see a lug nut or two move slightly and feel it in the torque wrench. Also always tighten in a...

    Tire size and brand?

    Not enough to make a difference regarding the op. So i guess i googled 26x11.5 slick huh? Well your wrong there again. I spent a good 10-15 minutes on summitracing searching through the 15” tire options with the parameters the op was looking for and posted the results. He was looking for which...

    Tire size and brand?

    I completely understand that but a tire that is only 1” taller all the way around (2” oveeall) isnt going to make much of a difference. Maybe if you start getting into 2-3” difference towards the ground i could see it. I think i worded it wrong but i meant that a tire in the same brand at the...

    Tire size and brand?

    Why try to calculate his tire with a fake size when he already said he was running a 28x11.50-15 Same width but lose contact patch? Assuming you were to run the same width wheel a 285/60R15 and a 285/50R15 in the same brand and pressure will have the same contact patch. The only time you will...
