Traded my H2 wheels for 2016 PW wheels

Post by Redman1973 » Sat Jul 16, 2016 7:51 pm

Well I have put some 30K Miles on my truck and not one mile was off road. So I decided to trade my daughter for her wheels as she has been wanting to upgrade for a while.

So are the H2 wheels really considered an upgrade over the PW wheels?

Sup Danny ? :patriot: Congrats on being a G-pa.

I ain't gonna lie, the rim switch looks like it was made to be. IMHO, both tires & rims look like they should be on the vehicles they are on now. :rockon:

Thanks...

I love the fuel mileage increase. I just did a 650 mile trip from Jacksonville, NC to Nashville, TN and averaged 350 miles per tank of fuel. Before the switch I was lucky to get 300 miles out of a tank of fuel [SMILING FACE WITH OPEN MOUTH]. I also ran 70MPH with the new tires, and she hardly ever downshifted coming over Hills. With my mudgrapplers.... any type of hill had me down shifting and top speed for me was 60MPH.

I have to say one thing however... I noticed a big difference in traction [DISAPPOINTED FACE] which is something that is concerning.
