    There's no reason NOT to put your truck on 39s.

    After 35s i feel like the stopping force of my brakes was greatly affected, i could only imagine 37s.

    Even off road?? Bigger wheels mean bigger moment of iniertia which means it's harder to stop them from rotating, another reason 37s are sketch haha

    yeah i noticed the same as well. i mean it stops, just feels like the rolling mass of 35s is a lot more than most people think.
    i was looking at getting some new rotors and pads at like 80k miles. if i were you joel, id keep the stock brakes until you need new pads/rotors since you still have a fairly new truck.
