    Thank you, I’ll be saving this. I’m assuming the preferred specs are without road crown? I think I rather not have that factored because if the road doesn’t have it then it want to track straight. Unless I’m completely way off on how it works. Not much of a difference between the 2
    Thanks again

    All roads will have some crown to them (or should) some have more than others depending on how well the contractor followed the engineers plans Lol...I believe,manufacturers account for road crown in their specs, I know many GM trucks have a different spec for left and right caster. Truck will still track straight but may tend to push to the centerline a little bit on a road with less crown.

    My Maxx’s are getting REALLY bad at pulling right now that they are getting low on tread. I’m ~6/32 right now.

    I wont ever buy these tires again because of the pulling and how fucking loud they get when they wear down.

    I bought geolanders for that reason. No reason to have aggressive tires when I'm on pavement 99% of the time and fire roads the remaining 1%.

    Hi all thanks again for all the great reply’s. My truck is driving good again.. alignment tech messed with the specs and got it pretty right he told me the roads where I live are extremely crowned because it’s one of the wettest areas in Hawaii. When I drive 30 miles to town and hit the nice highway the truck drives a lot straighter, when I’m close to home and am on bumpy roads it still goes to the right a bit but less then b4 here’s my new numbers compared to the ones in the beginning of this thread it’s a big difference.
