On the subject of tires, I opted for the 17.5 due to: 1) the fact they are offered by several quality manufacturers compared to the Goodyear RST G614 - it the only heavy duty 16" tire with a decent reputation and even they have an issue now and then. The 17.5 tire is the same diameter as the 16 inch G614 but it has a max psi of 125 lbs vs 110 on the G614. 2) the additional thousand pound capacity p/tire. 3) its rare to hear of anyone having and issue with the 17.5 tire.
Independent suspension is an option that at times I regret not getting. Those with it swear by it. I don't have the cost of that option.
Mine did come with the Nev-R-Bearings but not sure if its an extras cost or not......maybe standard with the 8K axles. Phillip
