It's not my truck. But I don't remember him saying anything about changing gears. It's not 100% necessary, but it does give it some power back

And takes quite a bit of strain off the drivetrain.

That's what I meant, I moves the power back down to where it was, so it's not working as hard to turn them

Thats the same exact tire I was looking at, but I just didn't know if I could clear 20x10s with the -24mm offset

If the distance between the center of your hub and the inside lip of your fender well is greater than 24.25 inches then that might be the sound of your front end steering and cv components hating you. Lol
