Like others above mentioned, definitely clean the barrel prior to going to the tire store. I don't even trust them to dismount and remount the wheels so I bring them in off the vehicle.

Yep, get rings and make sure you torque the lug nuts as much as possible with the tire off the ground. I will get roughly 80 lb ft off the ground before letting a small amount of the vehicle's weight on the tire to then finish to the desired torque. This step avoids the possibility of the...

Adding weight is part of the process, but many shops skip an important step: road force. On our tires, 2.5–3 oz is starting to get up there. I've used less on 33" off-road tires on my truck; the key is road force first, balance after. Correcting the position of the tire on the wheel to reduce...

Agree. Run it, wait 10 minutes or so then check it.

Are any of you retorquing the rear upper control arm bolt at resting position? My thought is making this change before the new spring is installed with a rough measurement of where the vehicle will rest.

Got it, thanks!

Sorry not following here, the muffler hangers need to be swapped or?

How many of you only clamped your Thermal cat back with no issues? Curious if I should weld certain areas of it during install or if the clamps have been reliable and no need to weld?

Are you E50 all the time? If so I'd go no more than 5k intervals. You could always test for dilution if you are curious how far you can push it. Ethanol can knock down viscosity a bit. Catch cans can offer cleaner intake air and for vehicles with only DI help a bit with carbon deposits back...

This has converted me from thinking 22 to 21. I like the added sidewall and feel the 21" is more balanced to the vehicle.

Very nice! Did the wheels come with a 70.5 hub center? Are those the F2 or F3 concave?

The toe was likely the main cause of the tire scrubbing. 2.5 degrees in camber is too much but would not do that to your tires that quickly and the wear looks toe related. Did you get this resolved?

Unless you are extremely low and need to correct bar angle, sticking with stock is fine.
