    I think my E rated tires are stiff enough to handle it and I wouldn't call 20 psi low exactly. In the summer I wouldn't run them on the road this high because it will generate too much heat and ruin the tires, but in the winter when it is below freezing they handle it fine. I've actually got them at 25 psi right now though.

    It actually is.

    The city that I work for contracts with a guy who handles both hawks and falcons to humanely keep the gulls away from the landfill.

    That tire should be dismounted, rotated on the rim, and remounted.

    Every rim has a heavy side, every tire has a heavy side.
    Mount the tire properly and a minimum of weight is needed.

    There's no way I would accept a tire mounted with that much weight.
    I ran 285/75-16 on my '06 Duramax and none of the 5 took anywhere near that much lead.

    When the hawk and falcon are in the air, the gulls make like a tree and GTFO.
    They stay out for quite a while. I think they only bring him in a couple or 4 times a month.

    Every now and then, one gets brave (or stupid) and yes... the result is a slightly improved gene pool.

    What Eibacks did you get and how much lift are they going to give you in the front? And what size AAL are you going to be running?

    You will be very happy with that combo! I have the 5100/Eibach combo up front with Dakars/Nitros out back. I'm gonna switch to 886s just for the extra weight handling sometime down the line

    Congratulations. I have never bought a brand new vehicle, but I imagine you're pretty stoked.

    Pictures?

    So far I only rub on full lock in reverse, by the sound of it its plastic, havent had a chance since yesterday finishing the lift and today at work, to trim/look. But no complaints.
