looks like tires are next after shocks and leafs
They'll get done the end of February for inspection time. I usually go through two a year. Put the new ones on the front and put the fronts on the back.

You must do a lot of driving to go through that many tires...

Well, what I mean bro, is I owned the truck two years, and last inspection it needed 2 tires, so I put them on the front and moved the fronts to the back. And I know those backs are ready to be replaced, as you can see in the pics. So I'll be doing the same thing this coming Feb. Christ, that should take care of it for at least a year or two, right? I only do about 10 to 15 miles a day. Maybe towing the boat all the time wears the **** out of them, I don't know. It doesn't pull or anything.:baby:

Yeah, I'd think that'd do it for a while. For my DD I drive about 25k miles a year Nd probably buy tires every 3 years or so.

Well, we will see how these do. I would say the new ones fon the front from this past Feb got to be a least a 1/4 wore down. I do a lot of tight turning, and with the boat on the back all the time I am sure it scrubs the fronts up quite a bit. And I can here the rear tires scrubbing on the boat ramp most of the time because of stones and ****. And I am sure the extra weight in the back of the truck with the boat gear and cooler and the kids when they come over, **** like that adds up on those tires I guess. Plus I drive through a field behind my house every night to park so I'm running it off pavement every day too. Time will tell......
