Don't buy Nitto 420s

[GalaxyBlackEsky]

Well I just took them off to put my Esky 22's on to take some more pictures of my truck for someone. Well took them 26's off and 3 out of the 4 tires have bubbles on the inner sidewall. I talked to nitto and they gave me the stiff around saying that the 420s in my size can't handle the weight of the trucks. So I am ditching these things and not buying Nitto's again. Plus def not going to be buying 3000 dollar tires. I got extremely lucky when I got my old slides that they came brand new because of a screw up on the guy selling so I only paid 2200 for new slides and Nittos. So going to be buying something else. Just wanted to give you guys a FYI on that.

I have zero problem with this tire for 24s and I drive on them pretty hard and my friend has them for his 22s and they've lasted 2 years and are still going.

Maybe it's just the 26" tires..

check your Weight for the tires. They said ours is 113 a wheel and 420's are only weighted 109. First I knew of this. But some bs.

How do I check that?

I find it hard to believe that being that discount sells them to me knowing they'll be on a Tahoe. Ive been in the building when they told a guy he couldn't get the nittos for his f350.

This is kinda weird sounds like nitto is just trying to avoid the situation.

But even at a load index of 109....that's still over 2200 lbs

Hmmm. I had planned on getting these with my 24s. Maybe go Yoko now?

You bought tires that weren't rated for your vehicle weight? How is this Nittos fault?
