I’m currently on a 24x10 +25 with 305/35/24 which is 32.4” of tire. I rub like crazy on highway dips.

A 40-series 22” tire is a 30.7” (275) or 31” (285) so I’m picking up a LOT of clearance. Not to mention the width clearance from dropping to a 9” wheel with a higher offset.

How was the ride on a 40-series?

I loved it. Only reason I went with the 305 is I wanted a set of Michelin tires and the 305/40 was exactly half the cost of a 295/40, which makes zero sense to me.

305/40 was $232 a piece.
295/40 was $465 a piece.

Weird right?

305/40 must be a common OE size on something. Who knows what. Maybe an Abrams tank.

Tightened up my SPOHN control arms and panhard bar yesterday........WOW. They were loosey goosey. Truck feels MUCH better now.

My Toyo Proxes ST3 should be here Friday, and will be mounted by the following Tuesday. :party33:
