    The stock wheels look better and as you said won’t cause suspension damage and are actually rated to tow. The aftermarket eliminates what the truck was actually built for as there is. No way I’d ever tow with low profile wide tires like those. On top of that the stock tires won’t cause damage to vehicles behind you as well as yours and are actually legal. You can definitely find wheels and tires that are a bit wider and better looking than the factory that are still tow rated, won’t cause suspension damage, aren’t a danger to cars behind you as well as being legal.

      @LyttonKing 4 месяца назад +2

      Actually I had buddies who ran those type of wheels and tow a massive goose neck trailer and his truck’s suspension does just fine.( you could always upgrade to a much better suspension) now the whole damaging thing doesn’t happen as often. But if you really wanna guarantee it, you can put mud flaps on it.. problem solved plus the wide wheels really gives the truck a lot of character, the stock wheels really just makes the entire truck look like a grandpa truck, sorry, not sorry.

    • @P-J-W-777
      @P-J-W-777 4 месяца назад +3

      @@LyttonKing it’s not just about the suspension. Tires have a maximum load rating. It’s stamped right on the tire. Hauling heavy loads you should be utilizing 10 ply or higher depending on the weight. You also don’t want low profile tires like that because there’s no cushion if you hit a big bump or pothole. Plus with heavy loads your tires will compress some as well. Running down the highway at 70-75 mph and having your wheel bent causing a blow out will be very dangerous.
      Mud flaps also won’t fix all the problem. He would have to put really large fender flairs on it in order to cover the entire wheel.
      I understand some people like the looks and I understand why. Upgrading your wheels and tires to a better looking larger size while staying inside the fenders is completely possible and done every day.
      I’ve had to work accidents that were caused by another vehicle be it a car or truck or a semi truck throwing objects through someone’s windshield. In one case an occupant was very seriously injured and in another case it caused a secondary accident when the driver walked other brakes and tried to swerve out of the way thus hitting another vehicle which in turn caused additional crashes. It’s just a safety thing. You have to ask yourself don’t you want your family to be as safe as possible while driving on the road? It’s already dangerous enough, we don’t need something else to worry about as well.
      It’s why most states created a law stating that your wheels cannot stick out past the factory fenders unless they are properly covered by fender flairs and of course mud flaps and in that case they cannot stick out past the rear view mirrors.

    The fact you changed them to actually use the truck kinda proves a point people make. They’re not only ugly, but also impractical. Those aren’t the best looking stock wheels but a new set of bigger tires would make them look a lot better.
    Also, those spiked lug nuts probably don’t seat up against the factory wheel like they should…pretty sure oem lug nuts are shaped a little different.

    You are going to love the electric power trailer jack, I have used one on my enclosed trailers for at least 10 years now and I love it. You should have the jack plug wired so that if you connect the trailer plug your truck will power the jack. You can get much more power from your truck as a power source than the battery alone, and your truck should have a power provision already in the trailer outlet in the bumper, you just may need to connect the wiring under the hood that came from the factory, or it may already be connected since your truck is a 3/4 ton. Great move getting the trailer for so cheap.

    I'm weird and I admit it. I always say "what I would have done" and this is no different. I would have put the battery box inside the trailer to reduce theft, and installed a solar panel or two with an extra battery for the lights and a trickle charger for the lift winch. Get some square or round aluminum tubing to reconstruct the roof structure using some basic T fittings and bolts to both hold the walls together and provide some ribs so I could use either white Tyvek Sheeting or some white Sail Cloth to form the roofing. A bit of a process but it would be a lighter structure and with the translucent nature of both materials you wouldn't necessarily need day time lighting, and could glue LED strip lighting to the aluminum ribs for night time lighting which could run off a small battery kept charged by a few solar panels mounted to the roof or to the side of the box. I doubt if the roofing material would be 100% dry.... but ..... yeah, clear sealant on the roof top could make it water proof. Maybe use aircraft canvas and doping... that would work too.

    Amazing price for the trailer and you were able to make a video on it already. Well, my guess of 100k subs by July hasn't happened but I do think it's still going to happen before 2025. While I get why some people do or don't like a certain style of custom or stock wheels, it is your truck and you get to choose whatever wheels you like. Looking forward to see what the car is you just bought as well.

      Id be thrilled with 100k at the end of the year but it doesn't look like that will happen. I hope so though!

    Omg. It looks SOOOOO much better with the stock wheels. Also, this truck is doing work. Those ridiculous wheels aren’t made for work. Their main purpose is to destroy your suspension and assault the eyes. 😂

    In my state (I believe most states, DOT regs) your tires & wheels are illegal. Any tire that extends past the fender must be protected by full fender flares or mud flaps. This is to prevent you from throwing rocks or other road debris into other people's cars, windshields, etc. Also, if you extend your overall width beyond 80" overall width. Of course you're in compliance with that, but most are not.

    18:50 I know it was just to get it home but you should upgrade that hitch to one with a higher rating 5k is pretty low. if you load the trailer with a car it would be way over the capacity of that and could break. Also get the correct 2.5" sized hitch for the receiver the 2" one you are using is for 1500 trucks, cars, and mini vans but 2500 pickups use a 2.5" one. If you really don't want to upgrade to the 2.5" hitch they make a sleeve for the receiver to properly allow the 2" hitch in the 2.5" receiver without so much slack like you have and that sleeve is like $11-$15 but you'll still need a stronger hitch for that trailer. Hope this helps just want everybody to stay safe👍

    We have that same trailer setup 24 X 8.5 but we tow it with a dually 🙌🏼 it doesn’t even know the trailer is even there 😂😂 but 24ft is about the right length you can park it anywhere and still put in hotel spots if you travel a bunch like we do 👊🏼💸😂

    You deffo need bigger wheels than the stock, but those deep dish are just not right imo. That said, it’s your truck - do what you want :)
