FLlegacy Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 It's recommended to use the same manufacturer tire and size all around. Besides tires are cheaper than a center diff. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I Donated broknindarkagain Posted December 19, 2015 I Donated Share Posted December 19, 2015 It really isn't advised to do so. You risk damaging the center diff. Your tires should all be matching with the same wear on all of them (tire rotations are important). Buy a set of 4 tires. The two different sets of tires you wind up using will be different size. Even though they are the same printed size, the overall diameter when you factor in tread life and manufacturer variances between different brands you can end up with enough of a difference between them to cause damage. No bueno and not worth the risk. Fixing a center diff is kind of a pain in the ass. You don't want to deal with that problem, trust me. -broknindarkagain My Current Project - Click Here COME AND TAKE IT "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing."

Derrickmd30 Posted December 19, 2015 Author Share Posted December 19, 2015 Yeah. I did some calling and got 4 tires same brand and model and size installed for 200. Then found out both my inner tie rods are bad. So I have to fix those today and get a alignment Sent from my SM-N920T using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLlegacy Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 Inner tie rods? Isn't it a rack and pinion? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
