Need opinion & info - Page 2

Here's my humble opinion.  I actually like the stock stance of both the H2 and the H3.  It's just not one of those things that I feel needs to be changed unless I decide to get bigger wheels/tires and even then only if you have to.

Thanks guys for your opinions....I will keep you posted in what i decide as I'm wanting to get bigger tires and rims of course              gangstagirl

Just keep in mind that when you add larger tires it will affect your gas mileage. I lost 4 mpg when I put on my 35" mud grapplers.  
 
My T-bars are cranked almost 4 turns and the truck is level front to rear to the naked eye. In actuality, the rear is still 3/4" higher than the front.
 
Kind of makes the truck look more like a little H2

BTW..... I love the quote by Shortbus: A rolling brick is still a rolling brick.
 
How true!

voodoo, your mileage probably isn't that far off from what it was before, since the bigger tires have thrown off your odometer, speedometer and trip computer.  hopefully soon someone will come out with a programmer that you can use to adjust for different tire size.  there are other threads here that go into a bit more detail on it, but the bigger circumference changes everything.  if you want to feel better about your new mileage numbers, just talk to importkiller - you'll feel better after hearing what he's getting for mileage.
 
rollin' in the shortbrick . . . . .

When I hade my PCM tuned..they also correctd the tire Calibration for the tires I have on (285s)..Stock tune is for (275s)

 You are correct about the speedo and odometer being off. At 60mph on the speedo I'm actually doing 65mph. This has been verified by my gps and by the little radar/speed display that the cops set up around town to remind drivers that they are speeding. Unfortunately, the loss of approx. 4mpg is correct; this also verified by gps with a couple of tanks of gas on my latest trip to Colorado. I haven't bothered to check around town mileage. Like I said before....If I was worried about mpg I would have bought a hybrid.

PCM tune is next on my wish list...... right after the K&N filter.
