If i could find a non load rated tire, in a 33 or 34" tire that was more in the 45-50lb range with some 25-30lb wheels id be happy, still use my 35's in mud and snow but run the smaller lighter tires spring and summer, not to mention a p-metric 275/60/20 or even a 295/7017 would be a lot less expensive than anything that is load rated and in the 34.5-35" range (315/70r17 or 35x12.5either 17 or 20 either way theyre friggin ridiculous... I can get the smaller tires for like $170-190 my 315/70r17 are something like $285 minimum...

Yeah the price of big tires is insane. Almost went the nitto 420 route just because of that. BTW my knock sensor codes returned the day after fixing that (they were accompanied by the lean codes). Just replaced the sensors, gaskets, and pigtail and they came back as soon as I did (that's when the lean codes arrived as well) figured fixing the lean issue may fix the knock sensor problem but I guess not. My tuner thinks I have a broken wire leading to the sensors, just hope that's what it is, and that it is findable. Also the codes I'm getting are knock sensor bank 1 and 2 low voltage. Thanks

Check to see if the knock sensor harness is plugged in all the way, if it is you may need a new knock sensor harness, theyre like $30-35

I did change the knock sensor harness already, that's what the pigtail is. And it's connected good, checked it multiple times

When you said pigtail i thought you meant just the end that connects to the sensor, not the whole harness.... Could always pull the connector and use a DVOM to see if you have reference voltage at the connector... Next step would be to pull pcm harness and knock harness and check continuity between them... Need pin outs for that, though!!

Yeah I was just gonna take it to my guy Brett. I'm not very good with that stuff. But I do have a digital meter thing, just don't know how to use it.

Hate to thread jack, but seeing as you have fixed your issue, I'm having some drive ability issues with mine, I've posted here a few weeks ago with very little response. I'm wanting to tune with hptuners but I'm getting suck bad fuel economy I'm afraid to go right in to it, maf working that I know of, fuel pressure is 55 key on 60 running, no audible or visual vacuum leaks even with carb clean sprayed. Compression was 155 -160 each cylinder. Can't bark a tire and I'm getting 13mpg stock vehicle and not towing.
