Question about changing tire size on my new 2022 V8 Carpathian Edition. I’ve seen on this thread that most of you run 33s on a 20” wheel or smaller. I have the 22” wheels. I’ve noticed that almost everyone with a 22” wheel runs a 285-45-22 tire. My question is why not a 285-50-22 which would be closer to 33”?
2022 V8 Carpathian Edition with 1.5” Johnson Rods. 275-45-22 Continental tires
I’m interested in 1” Johnson Rods but not seeing any examples in normal height. I’m also only interested in keeping my 20” OE set up. And can you use 1” with classic mud flaps? Any examples of what ride height would be and if classic flaps are okay would be greatly appreciated.
Mine is the all black one with the 275-60-20 all terrains on this thread. I'm really wanting to switch to a mud terrain like the BFG, KM3 or Toyo Ridge Grappler so my question is would the 33x12.50 or the 275-65-20 fit with your 1.5" lift?
Thanks,
Joe
I didn't see an answer to this, does anyone know if 275-65-20 will work with 1.5" rods or 2" rods? Also - how is the ride quality with 1.5" rods vs stock on road - and in off road height? Big difference or not a big deal? Thanks!
