How is the ride on Pirelli 275/25/24?

Hey does anybody have 24's with 275/25/24 pirelli tires..just wanted to no how the ride is..have heard good things about the toyo 255/30/24...will i expect the same type of ride with the pirellis? or will it be a drastic difference?

I read somewhere b/w the two tires the toyos are like .60 taller than the pirellis..wat can i expect?

Also read that the 265/35/22 are pretty much the same height as the 275/25/24, is this accurate?

Thanks

You can expect a pretty crappy ride that will eat your suspension and brakes. Nothing you shouldn't expect from a +6 upgrade! I doubt those truck tires run smooth regardless of the .6 difference.

pirelli 275/25/24 stands 29.4"
toyo 255/30/24 stands 30.02"
hankook 265/35/22 stands 29.3"


While I never rode on the 24's myself... My customers that went from 22" to 24" said they did notice a little difference in the ride quality While they are not truck tires at all...They all stand the same height but you will be riding on basically rubberbands!!


But they do look real tough..... Last I heard both of those tires are on national backorder anyway....

Ok, i have a few more ?'s about this 24" wheel set-up..

Does the bolt above the wheel need to be shaved down?
i see that the 265/35/22 are 29.3"(no problem)..i see that the 275/25/24 is 29.4"-so i imagine that the 0.1" will not make a difference, but what about the toyo 255/30/24??

i have heard some other members say that the bolt needs to be filed down but im not sure what tire size they are running..

last ?'s...What about running an air suspension with these 24's? Can u tuck 24's?? or will there be a problem??

U.A.S. please chime in..im sure u guys know..thanks!!
