Re: H3 Tires
that guys a dumb a$$ ya exactly just be like i know thats why i dont want 38"s, and ask him if hes ever rode in one or been offroading in one. And what sources he got all his info from. Put him back in his cacoon!!! And i dont know if they work on comission or what, but i sure know i wouldnt buy my tires from him. You dont really need the level for the 33", the level does good if you want 35's.

Re: H3 Tires
there are many posts here on tire sizes and brands
do a forum thread search for that
many of the serious off roading guys use toyo 35" mt's and seem like they are happy with them
i cant wait until my stock desert dueler 33"s wear out, but with 20,000 miles so far and very little sign of wear, it hard to justify tossing a perfectly good set of tires!
good luck

Re: H3 Tires
I suspect he didn't have 33" in stock and was trying to sell you the 31" he had on the floor.

Re: H3 Tires
I recently bought the 285/75/16 and i like them. BUT.... I would like a set of 35'5. Even if i have em just to throw on when i wheel. What upgrades do i have to make to the H3 to accomodate the 35?

Re: H3 Tires
Do you need to reprogram the vehicle computer when going to the 285 tire? I switched from stock to the 285/75/16 back in May with no problems. About a month ago the SERV TMP light came on. The dealer is telling me it is because of the larger tire and needing to reprogram the computer to recognize them, at $180. Ok, but why has it taken almost six months for it to be an issue? They said the bands in the tire are fine, it's the new tire size causing the service message.

You can reprogram the PCM for the difference in tire size, so that the speedo and odometer are correct. But tire size shouldn't affect the TPM system. As for reprogramming it, the steps are in the owners manual. You can do it yourself, FOR FREE! If that doesn't work, there may be a fault in the system (ie. bad sensor) and that should be fixed under warranty.
