If I go up to 11r,
( I cant find lopros anywhere) will it effect my gearing drastically or mpg?
I have a direct drive 10sp, and 2.64 rears, s60 12.7
Haul heavy triaxel sometimes, mostly tandem flat and step deck.
Thanks!
275/80/22.5 to 11r??

It’ll drop your rpm’s about 75.

Have you looked for 295/75/22.5? Pretty much the exact same size 0.1 inch difference.

Realworld, if you LIKE your current pulling power at current preferred rpm, you wont be happy. 80 rpm sounds like nothing, its huge.
If you feel like youre overpowered or always have to run higher rpm to make speed, definitely change to 11rs youll be much happier.
I was happy with my low pro 24.5 did a temp switch to 11r, it was godawful, then swapped with a truck that was way too slow at desired rpm from 11r 22.5, felt like a different truck entirely, one i didnt hate to drive.Another Canadian driver, Elroythekid and Brettj3876 Thank this. -

Can’t believe our country is running out of low pro 22.5? We’re in for a world of hurt…
I’ve been waiting on oil filters and fuel filters from my supplier since January for an ISX. I’ve been able to buy a few on line but can’t believe I can’t get any from my local supplier. Another guy I know said they couldn’t get a oil change at a Speedco on a 1 year old dd15 because no oil filters….Another Canadian driver and Elroythekid Thank this.
