Hawaii Recon Wheel Alignment?!

Thanks, but they're only temporary. Not looking to put anymore time into them.

 

I've tried both Scotty's and island brake both very good I went to Scotty's before on previous trucks and my truck was slightly off spec for recon so he took a pic with the truck front a little higher and printed it out so it was all green and good to go for recon


I went to island brake because it was easy to drop off when I had work at napa right behind the building hahah good work from both places lil over $100 for alignment

 

Yeah Scotty's will definitely get your settings into the green with a little something - something and a little more something. Just got my recon done and the inspector inquired how I got my alignment settings perfect with my 3 inch lift. I shrugged my shoulders and said I leave it to the pros to take care of my truck. Got my recon and now I'm off to get my safety check.

 

Is there anyone with a similar setup of 18x9 0 offset w/ 285/65 BFG T/A KO that passed recon with stock fenders? Pulling the trigger on the wheels soon, as I already ordered the tires, but I'm a bit worried. I read that AT's fit narrower than MT's and hoping that it would line up just perfect to get recon.

 

Damn...what are the specs on those wheels? I read +18 will bring it super close to UCAs, making it rub on the inside under certain situations.

 

Might have to slap on some temporary flares from Home Depot or lowes just till after inspection then dump em

 

Is there a requirement on how it's suppose to be attached? What's the best way of installing them temporarily?

 

It's supposed to be mounted in a secure manner, so bolted or screwed to the fender/existing flare. Double sided tape won't fly.

Although this was years ago, someone I know pulled his extended flares off after recon. (Like most people do) Got pulled over and issued a recon fraud ticket($300+), recon revoked, etc. That story has always stuck with me. Pretty random though, as it's the only story I've heard and we know how many people pull it off after recon & safety.

 

I guess prob depends too on how much the tires sticking out. If it sticks out like ^^^ and the cop gives a ticket that's BS, but if the tires stick out like a foot then ya I can see a ticket being warranted.. I've been lucky everytime I got pulled over just get a warning.. Helps tho my dad retired from HPD and my brother is a cop

 

Oh, you mean like if I pulled my fender flares off?

 

I'm gonah be running 285/65 toyo at2s on my bfds.

 

Planning on getting recon? What's your plan of action?

 

No recon till i do sum real suspension work. Only get strut spacer an aal. Was thinking bushwackers. Not sure how much itll stick out wit spindles.

 

depending if the inspector sees your spacer or knows you have a space you might fail regular safety, even a strut spacer requires recon

 

Never got da 285/65's yet. Ordered dem at truck fest. Ill get sum pics wen da sun gets up.

Good thing my safety's good til nex october. By then ill already have goten my recon.

 

FYI my alignment's SAI front driver side was 0.1 out of spec and I got my recon permit today. Had my alignment done Kaneohe Firestone.

 

Yup mine is 11.0 guy didn't say anything at all. In fact all he did was measure my bumpers. Didn't pop my hood or anything else but look at my tire sizes.

 

the alignment tech can remove the SAI spec out of the print out. heck they can even adjust specs too.

 

if you want, you can take my appointment on april 16th at 800. i wont be going in for it

 

naw i ended up passing my safety check so no need to worry, until maybe next year again haha
