    Does anyone know if they plan to have a Black Friday sale? I'm ready to buy, but will wait if they offer a discount :D

    So question for all the wheel and tire guru's. I have 5 Brand New Bronze Beadlock Wheels and have JBA UCA's Standard High Caster. Will 255/85/16 be an issue? I currently have 4 Runner Trail Wheels with 255/75/17 with zero issue. But the 255/85/16 is a bigger size.

    you aren’t changing the width of the tire, so you’ll be fine.

    the section width of both tires mentioned are 255mm wide, so that isn't changing.

    you are going to a taller tire, but not wider.

    I haven't seen any discounts on them, but their worth the price of admission. Had mine on the truck about 45k miles so far, no issues and the alignment was spot on no issues.

    I emailed JBA. They don't put the UCA's on sale. I'll order tonight. I'm sure they're worth the price, but why not save some money if you can? :D

    I'm going to buy another set, scuff them up. Paint them with PJ1 Yamaha Blue, then Eastwood Epoxy Clear. Match the Kings nicely.
