Default LM002 "New Tires"

I finally got my Super Swamper STS 33x12.50R tires installed today. First, they are not as wide as the stock tires.

STS tires = just under 13" wide
Stock tire= just under 14" wide (tread), with sand lip just under 15" wide.

they are the same height.

STS tires are a little more noisy than the stock tires but not much. They LM felt more nimble and lighter with the STS tires.

I'm not sure what the weight difference is, but it is HUGE!!!! My LM feels quick, the loss of weight made the biggest difference and I'm very happy.

Other than the lack of width of the STS tires I'm VERY pleased. I only got to drive the truck for a little while so I will give an update soon.

P.S. very first pic of side by side, STS on right is NOT on a rim and Stock tire IS on a rim!
