    Nah. They just have policies for the safety of their employees and insurance purposes that limit their amount of liability.

    Walmart tire center has no limits. I had a oooooold set of 38s that Big O, Discount, and Firestone wouldn't touch. Walmart mounted them up AND put airsoft BBs in it :D

    Load RangeE

    I'm not an expert on this, but having a rim too narrow for a tire could cause bad wear specifically in the center of the tread. Whether that 1/2" makes that big of difference, can't tell you, but I doubt it. Probably could find somewhere that will mount them.

    Heading back to Denver Friday to get my Tacoma again from the dealership. They said they replaced the Crankshaft Position Sensor and all misfiring has stopped and no more issues... so we'll see.

    Wear on them will be dependent on proper inflation. The issue will come when deflating them and how they stay on the rim. My 285/70 are recommended for 8 in. Trd wheels are not

    I made an appointment at Stevinson West with Jace (supposedly) and the earliest they had was the 23rd in the afternoon. Haha

    I'm pretty sure I bent my wheel. It is definitely not rolling quite right

    Lifted, Armored, needs more lights.
    I would also think Skids should be on this list, my actual first purchased received, Sliders ordered first but with lead time still waiting on them.

    Check out RCI (Josh) up North for Skids, etc.

    Make sure your tires are adequate, then I'd buy sliders first. I was still in the contemplation phase when this happened:

    I figure you already technically have skids, so I didn't put that. Good enough for mild stuff at least.

    I still have my factory skids :anonymous:

    Everyone has their different order if priority, I went lift, tires, sliders. You end up in the same spot in the end. Id probably do sliders first but I wasn't doing anything difficult with mine at the time so I did that later on.

    from the photo that was posted i didn't think it looked like anything more than road rash, or "CURB RASH" :D surprised if the wheel is actually bent.

    yeah maybe from the photo. :cool:

    You havent seen the wheel in person, or been driving the truck, looking in the sideview mirror at the tire/wheel wobbling at any significant speed.
