I plan on running toyoST 2s and still towing. Should get some by the end of summer. Guess I'll see how they do.

I had a plan to lower my truck down well below stock height (assuming I kept it which I'm not going to now) and I was going to run my 22's on Toyo Proxes ST2 and see how they did as well, just nothing ridiculous on towing.

when you get into 22" rims that are 12" wide, it's impossible to find a good E load rated tire to run that's lower profile.

I'll still be towing 10k lbs. should be just fine.. #1 reason for tire blowouts is from age from what I've seen.

10k isn't terrible though. That shouldn't be a whole helluva lot of tongue weight.

Heavy to me is anything 15k +

I agree, I think you'll be fine.

Yeah You have a 250 though. Mines a leveled stock height F350 and I just miss clearing 7 foot garages by about 3/4". Everything out here in the midwest seems to be 7'

How much do 4400 lb springs lower a 250 with 5200 lb?

Sorry for the derail, but I've watched a bunch of the truck videos from this youtube channel. The 99 F350 regular cab, shortbed dually with the 15 conversion is badass.



YES IT IS! Them guys out there got it going on
