    11x20 VS 395 offroad performance

    ya go with the 14.5s you'll like the extra top speed to and singles make it easier to turn and are better in most situations .it will accellerate quicker and have a higher top speed with 14.5s then it does with 9.00s since 6 14.5s with rims are lighter than 10 9.00s with rims.

    Deuce snow plow?

    no power steering will be issue .probably not as bad as you think since when plowing the truck will be on snow making it easier to steer.and half the time you are plowing the blade will be on the ground instead of hanging from the front of the truck,the closer you can mount it to the truck the...

    11x20 VS 395 offroad performance

    i think for most guys the 14.5s would be best .but for the guys that want to do some serious offroading the 15.5s or 395s are best .it.s all about getting what suits you and how you use your truck :-D

    11x20 VS 395 offroad performance

    in order to compare tires you have to do so at the same pressure to.anytime else and you are comparing apples to oranges.the 14.5s are a good choice they do give you a tire that was run on the trucks while in service.i would use a 12.00 20 tube in them some guys run 14.00 tubes in them .but i...

    Tow bar designs

    i agree tow bars and lifted trucks with big tires ussually dont work out to good.the tow bar should be as close to level as possible and whatever you end up going with should be extra strong as the truck will be more top heavy than the tow vehicle.so that can present a problem to .not to...

    11x20 VS 395 offroad performance

    ya i like the look of your truck way better than that setup .i was looking for 14.5s a while ago and they seemed to be the hardest size military tire to fine the only ones i found were so far away the shipping would have been way more than the tires
