No caps are the best caps.

Truck is stock height and yes I had to trim the pinch weld. No rubbing anywhere else.

Have you done any towing with that setup? My trucks in transit and I have the same wheels with Toyo Open Country RT’s (Ridge Grapplers were my first choice but they’re out of stock nationwide) and every big name shop says they won’t put those tires on my truck bc they’re not E load range… it’s bogus bc the tires have a 3,525 lbs. capacity per tire. So curious if you’ve had any issues towing

I see everyone on this thread have got big arse tires but I only want new tires of the same size as the OEM's (285 60 20 ) however I will be towing a 11,000 lbs. 5er with a pin weight of around 1800 lbs. so I was looking at the Grabber ATX mainly cause I like the look of them and heard they are good in rain snow etc. and reasonably priced but I'm hearing negative comments on AT's wearing out quicker when towing than a regular tire...any advice? I was wondering where to post this but caved and put it here cause it is about tires.

NOT MY TRUCK

Saw this truck at the wheel and tire shop I went to for my wheels and tires. This truck inspired me to go with a similar setup.

Not sure on the year but its a Bighorn with the Cummins

If you just care about performance while towing, and have zero preference on looks, then the Michelin Defender LTX is pretty great. They sell a 295/60R20. Any A/T tread pattern will not wear as well as a highway all-seaon tread pattern when towing heavy loads.

Looks great. Better get the weathertech molded mud flaps. Have them on mine and so far keeps side of the truck pretty clean.

Truck rides way better with these wheels and tires. So glad to get rid of the Transforce junkers

First pic is after I had ceramic coated both the wheel and tire in preparation for the trucks arrival from factory order. As you can tell, I swiftly wiped away all that tire shine after the install was completed. Mostly used it to have a barrier against the grease that shops use while mounting that often stains a tire. I was very skeptical about doing a bronze wheel and almost went with a black wheel with subtle red beadlock ring. Glad my wife reassured me that my original plan and idea's usually hold true. Cannot be happier with the way they turned out and damn.. pictures just do not do the wheel powder coat justice. I plan to make a full review about the Toyo MT but I must say that the performance of these tires is nothing short of amazing. I live in an area that gets rain like the desert gets sun.. these things just hook shockingly.. even with the extra juice I throw at it :p The Innov8 wheel's are super light and this setup is actually saving a few pounds on each corner from factory even being on 37's :0
