FF 1063; I was running 225/75/16 Load range D, PSI was 2025 for dual. I did not feel very safe with that set up plus i was towing a 20ft ski boat behind it. There was to much sway side to side and their was also the bouncing effect. I had air up the bags to 70 psi just to make it level. Sunday i put the camper on with the new wheels and took the air out of air bags and let it sit on the overloads. It made a BIG difference.

I think they reduce sway because the tires are stiffer but mainly because you can run a much higher tire pressure.
I know just going from 75 psig to 85 psig made a big difference on our SRW trucks. I believe with the G rated 19.5" tires you can go up to 120 psig??? Or something like that.
I can believe that they do make a big reduction in sway.
I have to say that if I were impressed with looks alone, I'd convert tomorrow. Boy those look good on your rig! The thing is, I'm really not unhappy with the way my rig handles, and I don't think I could justify the expense on looks alone... But your rig sure looks good ... and ready for anything. Happy camping.

Brad W, yeah my hankooks are rated for 115 psi....I only go up to 100.
S O L I D. It's the 14 ply sidewall that makes the difference!
JumboJet, those Eliminators are SWEET. My cousin has the same wheels and loves 'em. Not to hijac this thread, but what tire/size are those 19.5s?
