Looks good! Did they wind up having the same sidewall design on both sides?
Yes, it seems that was some BS I picked up from somewhere. Anyway it doesn’t matter as the tyres aren’t sticking out past the fender flares, it’s close but OK.

You mean it didn't explode pulling that trailer? :giggle:
Took the RL out for the highway test pulling the trailer yesterday. (Jeeps still at muffler camp so I had to do SOMETHING to entertain myself!) Sought out every steep hill in the area and it could pull at 65+ up a 6% grade with power to spare. So, yeah, er... I mean no... it didn't explode. Yet :fingerscrossed:

Ah very well. The only tire I know of that has different sidewall options is the Nitto Ridge Grappler. I'm sure there are others out there but that's the one I know for sure.

Good that the ones you have are legal. :like:

From one Honda owner to another :like:

Actually its good to see a Ridgeline get some good use out of it. The only way I'd ever get one would be if it was AWD, and not the FWD one... I just object to that setup in a pickup. The only exception being the Dodge Rampage and VW Rabbit trucks. They're small enough it doesn't make any difference, lol.

We get more than a few double takes at the RL pulling the trailer. And would NEVER get it without AWD. The Honda AWD system is pretty awesome... will run circles around the Jeep on snowy slippery roads. It even has a "stuck" mode that can help get it out of a jam...

I think that may be where the confusion arose as Nitto and Toyo are the same company. We can’t get Nittos though.
