put my 19.5s on today
I got fed up with delays and excuses from Rickson and I leave for a long road trip in two days so I canceled and had Les Schwab in Livermore order me 4 19.5 Vision rims and TOYO m143s in 245/70R195 90...

reflections after 2200 miles, 1600 with the TC on, 400 towing a horse trailer without a TC and 200 miles without a tc or horse trailer.
I keep hearing about a bone jarring ride on 19.5s. I have yet to have one. It rides like a truck not a car. It is firm but it doesn't beat you up. Loaded 85/100, towing and unloaded 80/90. I like the ride, the ranchos are set at 9 all the way around, the antisway bars and the wheels and tires are a nice match. My wife says the ride is much smoother than the one we got with the 16's
I just have to wonder if some folks have their trucks set up to ride like a 60s caddy or something
anyways I can't see going back to non 19.5s with our heavy truck and camper combo and with a rig this size: 26 feet long, 12'2" tall and 12,500 pounds deep sand and rock crawling are never going to be an option no matter what tire I run.
