Silver, thanks for the heads up on the rear. I have the posi and 20" tires, and no issues so far other than a leaky pinion seal (replaced under warranty). I swap the fluids every 25k miles, and use the posi additive.
The only noise I have is bad wearing tires. I bought the stock tires 3 times now as i wear them out. goodyears. This last set were crap. I knew something was up when they installed them with lead balance weights 25% around the rim!!! Like from noon to 3-o'clock, then a couple other chunks on there.
Then around 10k miles into these new tires, they started to pull like alignment was out. Took in for alignment and guy said align was perfect, but tires were wearing in an odd way making it pull. So he swapped them around and I tried to get them back where they belong. Too late. They porcupined up and now make a horrible road roar when I drive. And getting worse.
i rotate forward-backward only, to prevent porcupining.
These tires are shot after 15k miles, and I am still on them around 30k later, and they are driving me crazy with all the noise. It used to go away with each rotation for a few thousand miles, but this time it won't quiet up and they are wearing horribly...
Next tires will be a better name brand. Yokohamas or something like that.
