One thing that’s pretty funny is that I was all ready to change my tire size with the Tazer mini, but my speedometer and Waze seem to only be off about a half a mile per hour. Since they both only read to full numbers, they are sometimes the same, and sometimes Waze reads one mile per hour faster.

If your phone is plugged into your Jeep and using CarPlay/Android Auto, it won't show phone GPS speed, it'll show speed reading that the Jeep is sending to it.

I could tell a distinct difference when reprogramming for my change to just 285/70R17, so I can't imagine you wouldn't need to do yours.

I had no idea it was getting the info from the Jeep and not GPS.
THANKS

@CompanyMan Wow! What a difference! Rig looks great with the Mickeys!

 

[CompanyMan]

Thanks. I actually got them at Discount Tire in Savannah down on the south side.

OK, I will change the setting with the Tazer Mini. It looks like fir size I should enter 34.07. What should I set the TPMS to?

Is everyone running them at manufacturer reccomnded pressure for general on road use?

Thanks. I actually got them at Discount Tire in Savannah down on the south side.

Looks awesome. Do you get any tire rub at all? full turn? I also don't plan on a lift and will most likely never truly off-road but do like the look of the bigger tires.

 

[CompanyMan]

No rub that I can tell, even at full turn. But I haven’t done a chalk test or anything.
Here’s how the factory tires held up at 60k miles:

Update: smooth ride, not noticicably louder. hanles GREAT in the rain, in fact a littkebtoo great. I like throwing roostertails when riving through standing water (we have terrible drainage in Savannah as are at sea level) but the roostertails are significantly smaller with these tires. Unfortunately I an takingba hit on the gas mileage, I was getting about 20.5 and now I am getting about 17.5.
