Put 255/85/16s on stock OR wheels and suspension

No, they don’t rub. I ran them for over a year without any lift.

 

Looks good!

112k miles on a 2018?? Do you drive for a living?

what have you needed to replace so far and how’s the clutch doin?

 

I do oil & gas automation so I’m all over the place.

Engine oil every 10k, driveline fluids every 50k. 3rd set of tires. OEM’s lasted till about 30k. E rated duratracs from 30k-111k. That’s been it. Built like a tank. I have a lot of cargo with all my added weight I carry in toolboxes/tools/parts.

 

Update:
My Maxxis bighorn do rub a bit in the front when fully flexed

 

Hopefully some minor trimming or some heat gun work will sort it out?

 

Im hoping its just a small corner of the outer fender that needs to be trimmed. I cant tell if its rubbing the inner fender yet but i guess ill find out once the outer fenders trimmed

 

how are they on the highway?

 

Ugh there's waaaay to much information on this site lol. I was all set buying Falken wildpeaks 265 75 16's with new offset wheels but then I go down this tire rabbit hole of sizes and i'm looking at 255 85 16's now on the stock wheels(way less expensive) The Maxxis tires are close to the same price as the wildpeaks. I'm more confused than ever. Im in Rochester NY so the skinnier tire makes more sense for the snow.
But I drive mostly on road and I tow a camper in the summer so...

 

I towed a 3500lb trailer from IL to TX while moving, the truck did just fine on my CXT's. I rather like them in almost every way over the stock rubber.

 

How are they on the highway. I've read so many conflicting reviews my head hurts.

 

A bit stiff at 40psi, 30 is better. Louder than stock, but barely. The rest of the truck is still louder than the tires until about 70mph.

 

Thanks! Still not sure what to do but I appreciate the feedback.

 

IMO, The Courser CXT is the best tire I can imagine for these rigs other than maybe the S/T MAXX, and even then they're very evenly matched.

 

2 questions

1) do you think an inch of sag in the rear due to a camper shell and cargo would cause this size to rub?

2) does anyone know if the SR5 wheels a difference backspacing/offset than the OR wheels?

Hoping to stuff 255’s on my sr5 after in the spring

Much appreciated

 

I've flexed decently hard with a full bed of wood and not seen/heard any rub in the rear. You should be able to find the specs on SR5 and TRDOR wheels somewhere online, but my gut tells me they'll be just fine.

 

All third gen 16" have the same spec. The 17's and 18's have an extra 5mm backspacing to compensate for the extra 1/2" of wheel width.

 

Hell yeah thank u both

 

you have any pics of your truck with the cxts?

 

Hows the ride been? What PSI do you run them at?
