Just to define these terms - power sliding means only power on, drifting can be power, speed, or brake induced. Carry on.;)

Not necessary if you are using tapered lug nuts.

It’s a Stupid Tax. Some people who don’t know cars and have never seen a tapered lug nut will gladly pay $80 to not think about it. I even read from a wheel co’ that the clamp force is fine for maximum payload, etc. Someone be along shortly to disagree.

There is a website with a calculator that will show you what they should be. Google it, I’m on my phone. I assume you know it is a load range E tire and not a 40year old “10 ply”, unless of course you have G60s on your car yet.;)

Yes, zactly. I even got it for free at the dealer when I bought it as part of the whole deal.

😄 which is why us old guys use “backspacing”.

Same, was good on my gmc. I’ve posted in another thread but could be posted again here, that I emailed sumo and they said feel free to cut a taper/cone/other shape to soften the initial hit. I confess I haven’t gotten a rountuit yet. On the list..

😂 I have Sumos and there’s no way I can drink ANYTHING, even with a sippy top. 👍🏼

Stock wheels also includes 18”, and the tire you want will be 5% taller on one sidewall, same width.

Etorque and 1680 payload? Is this a v6? Axle ratio?

That does look like a good winter tread…👍🏼

For reference, I have stretched the original battery blanket over the h8, but if a new easier to fit size is cheap, by all means…

Does the auto style overheat in 4hi mode? I.e. not running the clutches often. Might simply replace and use locked in 4hi? Sorry, no help on the wiring. Good luck. Tradesman is no 4auto also.

As mentioned, splitting the unit is acceptable, and keeping your electronics. Mine sounded like bearings also, but was reflashed because of out of sync phases(?), so that may be a possibility if your mechanic hasn’t absolutely confirmed the bearings.

The hub bore is realistically the same, and almost all manufacturers use OEM wheels that are lug centric. Hub rings are not needed with tapered lug nuts.

Michigan has the ag plates as well, just need to show ag income. In other news, mower to bolt to cab corner:

That’s pretty light on the tires, and I’m surprised a shop mounted them, BUT the axle is rated for 4100 lbs, so within the safety parameters. Yeah, 65 psi at full weight might be a rough ride. Obviously without full weight you can drop down some, and I thought that calculator linked above even...

The last word of the post is key - reflash (reprogram). MDS is mechanically separate from etorque, and you will remember MDS has been around 10+ years?, with etorque replacing the alternator since ‘19?

Sorry I didn’t make that clear; it was dragging off throttle downhill. Sounded like a Subaru.😜 Honestly, I was surprised at both the downshifting and eco dragging that high.

Had a new perspective this week on the mds. I’m a toolmaker and build all sorts of machinery, as well as hotrods, and race cars. I live in flatland, so eco only comes on below about 1700rpm. But went to the mountains and noticed that it would helpfully downshift, but rev to about 3500 rpm in...
