Biggest mistake I see everyone make. “I thought they’d look bigger” Start with the biggest setup you can afford. They look a lot less aggressive in person. Especially when you see someone else’s BIG setup next to yours. 😎

I personally work at a tire shop where i live and i will be the first to say that yes we do takecare of all wheels and tires especailly if there new. However it is possible for something maybe to be in the wrong position and put a nice scratch across your brand new Akrons. I would strongly recommend letting them do the mounting and balancing for you cause in the end if they damage they will replace. Seams like a win in my books.

My worst one: not spending a little more cash and getting A/T tires on my first truck’s wheel setup. Went with all seasons and regretted it (got A/Ts after they wore out).

My fuel contras (24x14) are arriving in 7 days, I’m wrapping them in a set of 35x13.50 r24 venoms a/t for a little bit of a stretched look on my Jeep. I hope it goes well

[CaptainRudy]

Hats off to the folks who mount and balance these beautiful wheels. I used to be a tire tech and I'd be too afraid I'd scratch them 😅

[shemwhitehead]

I made the load index mistake so when I needed to get the tires turned around on the wheels because somebody mounted the wrong side wall out (damn it, Carl) the local tire shop wouldn't service them on my truck. I had to take my floor jack and jack stands with me and take the shoes off my truck in the parking lot.

If I buy tires and wheels and have you Mount them. What do I do about my Factory TPMS?

Biggest mistake- not checking the lug dimensions first and got something that didn’t fit so had to get adapters

[Lremediez]

My biggest mistake was slapping 2021 20x10 wheels w/295/45/zr20s on my 2016 durango R/T which cause them to kung fu my stock suspension control arms until I figured it out after a couple drives. I went down to some 275/45/r20 grabbers which don't guard the 10" wheel from potential curb rash the same but they fit the under the front arm since I wasn't sure about 285/50/r20 without a lift kit. I'm just studying suspensions & don't see much feedback about that size without a lift.

Haven't made a mistake yet, hoping not to due to here soon gonna be buying my first set of wheels tires and my suspension from Custom Offsets. Watched every video posted just to make sure I can fit what I want and will run the way I'm hoping.

I just bought the Venom Power Terra Hunter XT 33x12.50r20 load rating 119, they drive really well, I notice that on the tire cold it say 80 PSI, my TPM in the Silverado indicate 40 psi, I just got them installed, so my question is at what PSI you keep yours cold?

[AndrewSilvaVlogs]

Biggest mistake was not knowing the correlation between load index and load range. My truck calls for Load Range D but does not specify load index. So I got some 35x12.50R22 117 Load index Load Range E, thinking they would be fine. Well, they would be, if I wanted to run them at 60PSI. But the factory tire pressure is 42PSI. So for this size, I need a 127 Load Range F. Why F? Because all that the letter indicates is the maximum acceptable pressure. For example, the 121 Load Index Load Range E has about the same load capacity at 42PSI as a 127 Load Range F. This is because the load index is calculated at the MAX PSI. For LR-E it is 65PSI for tires like these, and LR-F is 80PSI for tires like these. SO when you do the calculation, a 121 Load Index with Load Range D has MORE load carrying capability at the same PSI than a 121 Load Index with Load Range E. This is because the 121 load rating is now measured at 65 PSI rather than 50PSI. The only benefit from a higher load range is that you get to run the tire at higher PSI and because of that, you end up getting more load carrying capability. but ONLY NEAR max PSI. So now i have to dismount and remount new tires and rebalance that meet the load carrying spec for safety.

Dustin is a beast in front of the camera! He needs to be hosting TMZ or some 💯

i have a 02 ford ranger and i don't want to blow money on tires then have to get a lift

[rodneyfaibvre]

Looking for some 26 in flat wheels for Ford. F250 no poke out no lift

[masonbedell]

Bought a set of wheels and tires one time for a vehicle didn't take into consideration the offset. So they mounted closer to the suspension than would have liked lol. Lesson learned

[smartinez]

Literally went out to measure my “33x12.50” cheaper brand tires and yup we are missing 3/4 to an inch in diameter.

[justing]

Should have gotten 17s with less offset instead of the 20s with the semi aggressive offset that I did 🤷‍♂️

[garyhawthorne]

hello i was told if i put bigger than a 22 inch rim on my 2024 gmc 1500 slt my front end would go bad and gear ratio change

[VortexVibe]

And here I am, just received my new wheels today… let’s see how this goes
