Just received them yesterday. They'll get put on when I get my truck over to my buddy's shop to have him mount the Federals onto the 18 inch steelies. I'll let you guys know how it goes.
Schitter's full... drain of the Mishimoto oil catch can
The other day I thought of when the last time I drained my oil catch can out. Turns out it was just over 1200 miles ago. It's looks like a little mini toilet during the cold days of winter. And it hasn't even been that cold yet.
Oops... got some on my finger...

I found the spacers weren't needed. Plenty of clearance.
Finally found a cheap set of 18 inch factory steel wheels for my truck. Had my buddy's shop mount the new snow tires. Spacers weren't required for my install either. He said there was plenty of clearance.
I kept the plow on figuring he would be able to still get it done which he did as the snow has been falling every day. I was only able to go 60 mph as my new Meyer Lot Pro is 32" high and blocks a lot of air even with the plow angled to the left. It did feel really smooth but I will plow my driveway when I get home, then want to drop the plow as a regen is coming up real soon. I have to put together my plow dolly as I want to get the plow on it to make it easier for the next time mounting it back on the truck. I'll post up pics here when I do.
I want to drive faster and see what I think of those Centramatics. I'll keep the forum informed.

Exact same thing I did. Found a guy selling his stock 18” wheels, and they had very few miles on them. That’s what I put my winter STT Pro tires on, and I sized them to match the stock 20” wheels and tire combo size.

They are the same size as our spares, which is 275/70R18 I believe. I'll double check that. So they are an inch shorter than the 275/65R20s. I'm running Federal snow tires. They have siping all over them. For the price, I couldn't beat them with a stick.

Yeah, I went with the STT Pro's in 295/70R18, which are 34.26" tall compared to my stock sized AT3's in 275/65R20, which are 34.07" tall.

I went with Federal in the spare size of LT275/70R18. For $575 with tax for all four, like I said, couldn't beat 'em with a stick. So it's only an inch difference in height.
I must add that I believe with those Centramatic's on the hubs, my truck has NEVER ridden smoother IMO.
