...After The Level!!

Looks like a bad wheel alignment is eating those tires up.

in the last 4k miles my ridge grapler tires have gone Bald! I have a rough country Lift
this was taken at the start of summer too
who TF can just come up with $1400 for a new set of tires every year

You sir need an alignment.

You sir need an alignment.

it started a little that I noticed before but it was after I got one at Mr. tire in horseheads N.Y that this happened within weeks the paper printout said I was .5 out, I have the printout here somewhere I will add to this post when I find it....
it is on the inside of both front tires the same, I would like to figure out whats wrong before putting $1300 into new tires
there is only 19k miles on the whole truck, there is no way this should have happened
I have a rough country Lift and the paper says it was aligned to Tremore specs?

About 2 weeks ago I traded my 2019 Ranger XLT for a 2021 Tremor. I loved the XLT but have been wanting 4 wheel drive for a while and really could not be happier!
It had Grabbers and I knew from the first test drive that I would be buying tires because they rode terribly down the road, it really felt like I was driving over a very uneven cobblestone road and a mean drone on the highway. I put on some Falken Wildpeaks and its like a new truck! I dialed down the pressure to about 36 front and 34 rear and this helped even further to slightly soften and quiet down the ride a little. I did some accessorizing but the last thing I did was the Truxxx 1 1/2" spacer level. Turned out perfect, the truck sits almost perfectly level with an ever so slight rake but hard to discern without measuring. I think it rides somewhat better leveled actually than stock. This may be rather subjective but the quality of the ride is not hampered or diminished at all IMO. You'll love it!

alignment issues? I have 15k on the OEM hancooks with plenty of tread left. I have a level front and rear.

My Hankooks won't wear out. I want new tires (+1" size) but have a tough time throwing out good tires. I am at 9/32"s with about 22k-24k miles on them (I run both summer and winter wheels, not sure of exact mileage on them). I believe new is 12/32" or 13/32".

I've never liked OEM tires on any vehicle, but honestly I don't have a lot of negative comments on the Hankooks for an OEM. Yeah, they are squishy and only mildly an A/T tire, but they work. I dislike the white outline lettering, but that is subjective.

When I had my 2019 XLT it still had the stock Hankooks and they had decent tread left but I wanted some larger tires and more A/T so I put some BFG KO2’s on it . Much better tire and road feel! Since the Hankooks were still good I kept them and sold them on OfferUp for 150 bucks. Made me feel better about the cost of new tires.

I have the 1.5” Truxx. I had to significantly adjust the headlights. Rides more firm.

Rotate those General tires a bunch. I’m at 23,000 miles. Had to replace my tires at 20,000.

Head to replace my danged Bridgestines at 25,000. Front end out of alignment bad and I personally rotated them twice in that time.
Replaced with Michelin Defenders. We’ll see. Have a good one!

Did some digging around....tons of info on installation...what the truck looks like after a leveling kit install!....but very little on how they ride after the install!...just wondering....you guys with the Tremor package....how was the ride after install? Will be ordering the Truxx 1.5 inch level soon!....appreciate any info!!

My experience is kind a different what i read here. I only liftet 1.6cm and the dray drives more like a tanker. Even after adjustment the steering is not as crisp as it was before. it is like putting the full load in the bed. u loose some “feeling“ in the steering And the front gets more sensible. The rake has it‘s sense is my experience. And i drove the much heavier 3.2 diesel.
