Someone got the full satellite Firestone experience, gotta go to the big ones in a bigger city their managers actually run a tightish ship

Need to decide if I’ll even call them to complain. I’m not driving the truck back there since the power steering system won’t hold fluid anymore.

But they’ll just pull the “it’s an old truck” card like everyone does when they mess up these days.

 

Needs something

 

For when you want to spray but skip the pray

IDK if ill be going back to E load on the slug unless I start shredding sidewalls. Ole girl rides like butter over bumps now, jesus.

Seems the tires don't even poke as much, but the ride is so much better with the wider wheels. I'm happy

 

Idk what they even pulled on me when they fucked up mine, but I decided since I bought the lifetime service to go to the one within a reasonable distance with the best google ratings and they had bang on good service

 

I knew a guy with e loads on his Tacoma it was shit, Soo much mass that the rear end would hop around if you were turning while going over a speed bump

 

you gotta inflate them properly if you're on Es

18-20 psi was good on my truck

 

I've only ever had E loads on my truck since I bought it.

Yes the ride is stiff as hell and I blame the tires almost entirely. Its nice not worrying about flats though on the trail...except that one time it happened.

 

Feels like steering a boat on curvy streets though, well at 15 - 18 anyway.

But yeah it's night/day offroad, when people like JKO say they never air down with E's it makes my neck hurt just thinking about it.

 

I have some bfg c loads they eat nails / have chewed up side walls, no problems but I need some tires... Looking at Yokohama's as they've been good to me

 

LOL

yeah I went out with my buddy on 35s in D range on his first difficult trail and he didn't air down at all. He was complaining about how brutal the trail was

 

E Load are awesome, they rode nice and smooth.

 

Chucked up sidewalls is characteristic of BFGs, both sets of KO2s I had got chunked up something fierce. Never got a flat though with them.

 

yeah I've driven down trails before on 35 psi looking for a good spot to air down at, Jesus fking christ I can't imagine doing that for an entire trail run.
