I've been running them since 12/2020, but I also run two sets of wheels & tires between winter and summer. So it'll take me longer to see an improvement.
I'm running the factory goodyear wranglers, so they have some pretty deep tread yet and can pick up rocks. I didn't remove the wheel weights - that just seems dumb to me. Unless the balancing was WAY off previously (and it wasn't) you want to leave the weights on so that the centramatic can compensate from there.

This forum has a way of causing wallet drainage. In this case though, it's more than just a nice doodad for your truck. Ride quality for me was noticeably better and with the price of tires the centramatics will pay for themselves, if tire life can be extended. To me, the ride quality improvement alone is worth the price of admission.

I guess this is building back better? Annual fuel shortages under the current administration (pipeline shutdown last year). Thanks for the heads up at least

To speakerfritz’s point, will the 6.7 live on B100? Ford says not to run higher than B20?

my suspicion is yes….the b20 rating is probally set due to nox emissions-since biodiesel Produces more nox.

Cool. I’ve thought about making homebrew biodiesel back in 08 when diesel hit $4 but never did it.
