Got tires mounted today. Now waiting on spacers

kealiher2004 · Dec 29, 2014

Is the wheel stud thread pitch 14x1.5 or 14x2?

Koda22 · Dec 29, 2014

My understanding is 03+ I think it was a 14x1.5 anything older was the 2.0 but you better wait for some one thats for sure

99-03 14 x 2.0mm
04 up 14 x 1.5mm

This. Seen a lot of nasty blowouts, shifted belts, etc on 3/4 ton and heavier trucks. They are really sketchy if you tow. They are cheap. Like, dirt cheap down here. But they are cheap for a reason. You can't give them away. Be very careful, fair warning.

I've never seen as many destroyed bedsides and fenders as I have from Federals coming apart

I wounder if they came apart from heat? Here in maine we are lucky to see 90's for a week here all summer. I will have to keep a close eye on them. Thanks for the heads up.

I was actually thinking about that as a possibility.

If you see ANY deformation, get them off ASAP.

The bummer about it is that they're great tires for the money, otherwise. They clean out really well in mud, and they wear pretty good all things considered.

kealiher2004 · Dec 30, 2014

Ill keep a close eye on them. I talked to our tire rep this am and he will stand behind them for me if any issues arise.

kealiher2004 · Jan 10, 2015

Finnaly got my truck back together and new wheels on. Must say i am pretty happy with the results.

kealiher2004 · Jan 10, 2015

Some pics

mandkole · Jan 10, 2015

awesome-- looks great. Could ya shoot one down the side for me?

Also, could ya get the front end locked down enough to torque the spacers correctly? Always been curious about that..

kealiher2004 · Jan 10, 2015

Yea i put a brace on the brake pedal and made it easy to torque the front spacers. I used lock tight hope to prevent any issues. Thanks. I couldnt be any happier with the looks of these wheels. Ill go out and get that side down view pic for yea.
