Message: [QUOTE="Ciras, post: 1354123, member: 22020"] Prepare to get lurned, Cletus. It is a matter of statics and dynamics. The wheels are aligned to the vehicle with a suspension that is designed for specific characteristics, including tire/wheel size and offset along with handling. The factory alignment specs takes these factors into a account. Changing the wheel offset affects scrub radius. A difference in diameter or width means a change in stiffness, affecting the handling (an overly simplistic term that describes how a multitude of dynamic parameters behave) and torque transfer. Alter these parameters and you will need to adjust the alignment to maintain ideal handling and tire wear. The wheels and tires are the medium which the suspension interfaces with a surface, yes? There are several other people in this thread stating that they have experienced or witnessed the same thing. And even Mickey Thompson agrees; install a non-OEM tire/wheel combination and get the truck realigned. [url]https://www.mickeythompsontires.com/tech.php?bulletin=t2[/url] Now go sit in the corner.
