Raptor Wheels on Tremor

[Calbot]

No shit man!. I may have to just bite the bullet and pay premium.

I got a killer deal. $1k for all 4. Brand new, didn’t leave the dealer.

Now you know

Tears of jealousy

Honestly, I’ve seen a number of posting for these wheels with the oem 37” tires for around $2400. Which is a pretty good deal. Now I know most of us tremor guys aren’t looking for 37’s cause we don’t want to do the trimming needed to fit them. But it’s a good deal.

I’m concerned just looking at these raptor “35” and whether they’ll fit without trimming (not to mention whether eibsch 2R will matter). They’ve massive.

37s are insane.

That's what I'm talking about. That's a smoking deal.

I agree, I think there's a very small pool of buyers for 37s.

They'd probably sell faster if they sell the tires separate for the Raptors that just need a new set of tires.

Hey guys. Look at my recent post regarding TPMS. I bought Raptor 315/70R17 take offs (almost 35) and they must have been from a 2024. I have a 2023 Tremor and I was not able to program them to the truck. I had to install new ones. FYI for those doing the change.

Did you do the relearn procedure?

I still have my 23 wheels on and am going to do the same. Will suck if I need to swap sensors… probably cost more than buying new ones if I need to swap and balance two sets lol

I have a '23 with Raptor Take-Offs and 315/70R 17 KO2's.
Changed out wheels and tires at about 800 miles and now have over 15k.
Did a ReadyLift 2" Level Kit and have absolutely no issues. No Rubbing, tires are wearing evenly. Mileage may have dropped slightly, but noting that significant. Running 36 psi Front and 32 psi Rear when not towing.
Truck rides and drives pretty much the same and noise level is also about the same. Bought tires at Discount Tire and have them Rotated/Balanced about every 6k.

Hey AAndrews,
Quick follow up question. What MPG are you getting? I have been running 37 to 38 psi front and 34 to 35 rear. I have been averaging 14 to 15 mpg. Wondering is that would be my max. I feel that if I run the psi lower it would even be worse. Since you also have the Raptor Take Offs and same KO2 tires as me. Have you ever done a chalk test?

Yeah I decided to stick with the base raptor takeoffs. For $200 I get 35” load C and 17” black ford wheels.

I will miss these tremor wheels though.

Raptor R wheels are awesome but I will probably scratch them up day 1 lolView attachment 36400View attachment 36401View attachment 36402

Good choice! That is exactly what I have and I really like them. I also have the same truck but with some modifications to make it look slightly different. No orange haha

Did you do the relearn procedure?

Yes. The dealer couldn't either or the tire shop. They are a different frequency. It changes in 2024 and mine is 2023.
I did do FordScan procedure to match my speedometer so my mph are not off.

I’m running 36 psi front and 32 rear. Chalk tested my 19 Raptor and that’s what I used on it. So far, @ 20,000 miles tires are wearing well. Rotating around 8,000 miles. I do up the pressure to 38 all around when towing 7K travel trailer.
On mileage, around town in stop & go traffic I get 15.5 to 17.
Just made a trip to lower Alabama over the weekend and got 21 mph @ 60 to 65. Last trip at 70-75 was just over 20 mpg.

I live in the Florida Panhandle where it’s fairly warm and pressure rises several psi when driving.
I’m also a bit on the “Older” side and don’t drive too aggressively most of the time.

Thanks.
I am in Utah with higher elevation and bigger swings of temp. Thank you for the info!
