Default First things first

Hello guys

I bought new 275 65 18 tires for my 05 LR3.The question is :should I align the vehicle first or should I install the new tires and take the truck to the dealer for alignment? Also what would be the correct tire pressure for these taller tires?Thanks as always for your help.

disagree. tires first alignment second. technically doesnt matter. make sure to take your lr3 somewhere that has the correct equiment (Hunter Code Link for an example) to make sure your truck is in tight tolerance mode before beginning the alignment. It is not super critical that the truck be in this mode, but these trucks chop out some tires and a proper alignment and rotation pattern is the best way to cure that. I have 275/65/18s on mine, run 38 in the front 46 in the rear with nitrogen (by the way unless its free, theres no point in nitrofills. you never truly get all the oxygen out of the tire, so there will still be slight fluxations in pressure
