What did you do to your Ram today???

Love those tires! I am also trying to upgrade from the factory 285/45r22s. Never considered the 275/50/22's...How do they ride? Any lose in MPGs?

So far so good. Quiet and smooth. I'll always take more sidewall if possible and this is about as much as you can get with the OEM 22's and stock suspension. I have a thread in the "wheels and tires" area for more specifics. I gotta give it at least 1 tank of gas before I sign off on any MPG changes. I almost always drive in Aero mode, so there's that to consider as well.

My Ram and I left Montana.

And Idaho.

my Ram and I went to play at Bonneville Salt Flat




... and drove up the ledge right next to the sign because I got ground clearance while others had to go around via a flatter ramp. I wasn't even in 4WD yet.

I pushed the truck to 92MPH on the salt flat before I stopped giving it more because... I really see no point trying to max it out. I much rather save some gas for the long drive ahead lol

as usual, more in my build thread

Small stuff.
Replaced oem wipers. Went with bosch icon. Got 3 years and 3 months out of the original ones. Lol. Not much rain in CA
And my 1st check up on the oil catch can. Less than an ounce for 500 miles

That's about right for the catch can. I get 1oz every 1000 miles. I usually empty every 2k miles and have 2oz.

good to know, have you notice if the amount changes in the winter?

I did not notice a difference on my RAM. Previous vehicles Ive had catch cans in did. I think a lot has to do with location. Mine is mounted close to the block, so doesn't get as cold in winter
