    I would have reset, but I would also expect over time for things to settle in if I did not. I have had great success in the resets I had performed relating to octane changes across the tune trials.

    EDIT: What tire make did you go with for that size?

    I flashed to 87 FOB (MT) over the weekend. I did the Rest DTC and LV after loading the tune. It made it feel completely differently (better) from the first time that I tried 87 FOB before we had those options.

    I'd say give it a try.

    I'd install 2.0beta right now just to try it out.

    I ran this size on my '06 4cylinder MT, and liked them a lot. Those were Cooper ATW.

    Not everyone’s thing. They grow on you, or they don’t. The size does work well in quite a few applications. I feel like the truck is a bit floaty in mud and snow on the 265’s. These dig. Hopefully it’s not bottomless mud or snow.

    I haven’t made it to the mall, yet, to get the really good pictures.

    235-255 is not uncommon in Africa and Australia. Those guys Offroad hard in Landcruisers and Rovers. Like you said you either like them or you don’t. The wider the tire the more it floats, the skinnier the better it digs and steers better too (especially on ice)

    I know a lot's happened since this post, I looked through and maybe missed it, but was this on an otherwise stock exhaust? Mid cats/stock Y pipe still in place?
    Very exciting work here!

    For those who have sold their Dongle and wire. How much? Thinking about other truck options and possibly selling the kit. I do know that OVTune charges for a registration of the new owner. TIA

    I bought my used dongle kit from someone on this forum for $250.

    (Please remind the buyer that they'll also need to purchase a license from OV before they can use the kit. You'll need to find out from Mat what he's charging for just the license these days).

    Is it reasonable? That’s similar to buying a used laptop and not being able to use it until you buy windows again. Just curious if the new buyer is paying OV for the time it takes to reregister the new truck, or if there’s double dipping going on.

    Both the customer and OV have to be careful here. The customer wants a reasonable price, but OV has to protect himself from users “reselling” the tune, but also keeping it on their own truck, as I don’t think there’s a way for him to ensure the old user deleted it from the ecu.

    Question for 2019 owners (AT):

    how many 2019 AT owners are experiencing torque converter shutter, at any speed?
    We have got a few messages from 2019 AT owners (without tunes) asking about how to flash a TSB (none exist), or if 1.05.1 changes are incorporated in 2019 trucks (which it is not, currently).

    But if the issue is still present on 2019 trucks straight out of the factory we can update 19' files, as we have another update for 19 files anyway to wrap up.

    Question, I can I reset LV and Auto after a few thousand miles without having to reflash the truck?
