Pics of stock duratechs with 30" tires???

Dar70 · Apr 21, 2009

Im wondering if anyone has pictures of their stock duratechs with 30" tires. I was thinking 31's but they look to stuffed. Im assuming 30's wont look as stuffed. I havent been able to find to many pictures here so far. One or two but they are always on an angle it seems.

Man you need to take some pics. How is the gas mileage??

jax4bangin · Apr 22, 2009

gas mileage took a hit.. i went from gettin 33 mpg regularly to about 27 mpg with the stock gears.. then i got 4.56 gears installed(with the 30" tire it gives an actual ratio of 4.10) had to figure out what my actual speed was, but i average around 28-31 mpg now.. still pretty dam good for a truck if u ask me..

i mean sure anything can get great mileage with those tiny car tires they come with. but i cudnt be more happy with the looks.

as soon as i get some pix ill put em up

Thanks Jax. So were talking about a 6 mpg loss with the stock 4.10's and 4mpg back after you got the 4.56's installed. Did you have it done. If so what is the cost?

no prob dude :icon_thumby:

but i actually had the 3.73 gears stock so the 30s made it a bit gutless. then wen i switched to 4.56 gears my actual ratio is the equivelant of a stock 27" tire with 4.10 gears.

it cost me 825$ for the new gears cuz i had worn bearings :bawling:

but im very happy with the performance of the 4.56 gears and 30" tires

i have a 02' you guys know what axle I have, im assuming the 7.5 what gear is in it? just wondering because i ordered 15 by 8inch wheels and I am trying to figure what size tires I want.. to fill the lift i'm installing

jax4bangin · Nov 20, 2009

7.5..u most likely have the 3.73 if u have a manual tranny and reg. cab.. i know that most of the x cab/ auto 4 cyl. trucks have the 4.10 tho
