I finally got around to switching the tires on my 3500 with the tires off my 2500 this week.
I couldn't belive it....I would say it was 95% better!! I went out and did about a 60 mile test drive on the interstate with traffic, up and down hills, and around corners with traffic. Before, I was definitly white knuckling it around corners and next to traffic with both hands and felt like the rear "light" in the corners, now it's back to the way I would exspect it for what I'm towing and close to how it is with my 2500. Even the wife in the passenger seat could feel the difference.
The other 5% would be me just not liking the adaptive steering over tradtional from my 2500. It could be a bit of the allignment which my local dealer is going to look at since it has a "loose" feeling, but I'm guessing it's just probably me not liking the feel from what I'm used to. I wish there was a was to make the steering firmer. Would a better stabalizer help with that?
As far as the tires, I'm not exspecting the dealer to do anything about the tires except replace them with the same thing so I'm going to be tire shopping soon. I have a few trips coming up so I'm just going to leave the 2500 tires on it for now.
I did have one thought though......The tires that I put on from my 2500 are 18" wheels vs 20" that came with the 3500....I wouldn't think it would make a difference and if anything would be better.... unless the tire is "rolling" since there is less sidewall to take the side loads.
Liking the look on the 2500...
