black H2 wheel pics AND tire suggestions

[Kspen90]

Ive been trying to decide on a tire and wheel combo for a while now and i think i like the way black h2 wheels look but id like to see some more pics. Also what is everybody using for center caps? Im looking for suggestions on tires too, I want something with a directional street tread like a nitto 420s but i hear those are junk. So whats everybody think?

ive been running toyo proxes st they are a very nice tire, hook descent at the track too!

Nitto 420s aren't directional, and the the only size they make for a 17" wheel is pretty short. I haven't heard of them being junk though. I have them on my truck, and they're pretty good so far.

a little bit different of a tire than youre looking for but i pc'd my h2s and ran chrome lug nuts looked pretty clean imo. im actually selling these rims right now if youre intrested let me know.

Im looking for about a 305/65. How many miles do you expect to get out of your 420s Josh?

Yours have a hammered finish dont they?

If i go with hummers i want a smooth gloss finish i think.

Whats everyones opinion on putting a load range C (6 ply) tire on our trucks? Like most people i very rarely use my truck for hauling anything.

I had mine powdered a semi-gloss black. Its looks smoother than the gloss or satin. Nbs centers look great on h2's btw. Loving my hankook rf-10s

NBS centers? What load range are your tires?

 

[TeaBagger2006]

MAke sure it's alloy

i guess im missing something here?

the center caps from the new body style allow wheels. tires are 10 ply load range e. Old picture of the the wheels.

420's are awesome. Great life, unless you tow heavy, and hook well. Like Josh said they are not directional but they do have inside/outside sidewalls.

NBS centers= New Body Style center caps.
Alloy as in alloy vs. steel wheels
Load Range C tires are for mid size trucks and cars.

The problem im running into with the nitto 420s is they dont come in the size im looking for, i like the general grabber uhp's but they only come in a load range c and im concerned that tey will not hold the weight of the engine without squatting the tires

 

[Kspen90]

Anybody have any insight on load range C tires on a dmax?

 

[TeaBagger2006]

Don't be a fag, c tires will wear extremely fast and I wouldn't trust them. I ran 1 c tire by accident and it wore really quick and I couldn't sleep knowing I had it on there

The tires im considering have a 2600lb rating which totals 10,400lb when my truck weighs ~6800 and now i never haul anything so i dont see why it wouldnt be alright but im no tire expert......all the reviews sound so good on the uhp's and thats making me want them more not to mention theyre $550 a set vs $800 for my next choice which are the "correct" load range. The z speed rating isnt looking bad either
