My first "mod". Since I didn't buy new like I was going to I wasn't able to get factory 18's. So I bought a set off eBay that arrived and looked like never saw use.

Then I bought some Continental Tour something or other long life tires. 235/60R18

The Continental Tour something or other is highly rated, a good choice! Seriously, looks great.

I kept my 17's for winter use. I like having a summer set and a winter set of wheels and tires.

The tires are Continental Contitour 54. I couldn't remember the name before. ? They are a ton quieter than the old AT tires.

The TPMS system seemed fine this morning till I got close to work when about 25 miles since swapping them all 4 sensors faulted out. I have the learning tool. I didn't think I needed it when they seemed to be working just fine last night, but now I gotta try retraining them.

I just reset the TPMS sensors during my lunch break. Took a couple tries to get into learn mode, but was easy as pie after that.

Wonder if I will have to do it again when the winter wheels go back on?

I like those Outer Banks wheels
I think these are actually the Big Bend optional 18's. The Outer Banks wheels are different. They are flatter looking. These have a better shape to them. IMO

No. I swap between 2 sets of wheels and tires frequently. Never get any tire lights or anything.

I did the opposite on my OBX. Got BB 17's from Craigs List. Thought the carbonized gray looked better with my Kodiak brown. And wanted a taller side wall tire.

I like both. The 17's are a great looking wheel too.
