haha i agree.
a few people told me to just buy the 285 75 16's but if im gonna be spending a hefty amount of money on tyres i want the extra inches in width and height.
i think im going to have to cut and pinch weld or weld a smooth edge onto my bullbar to save the tyres incase they do rub.

well i think i decided to go with the 255/85 bfg mt's with the ome lift and triming bump stops, maybe removing the sway bar, and if its not tall enough, than a one inch body lift for s&g's.... should be fun

glad you've made your choice. if i didnt need the wide tyres for flotation then i wouldve run the 255/85's. now its onto the mission of trying to find some 3" coils. i might have to just run the 2" coils and a 1" coil spacer.

depends if you are getting a "True" 12.5 wide tire. for example even though my tires say 11.50 wide they are accually 12.50 with the side lugs. i got 2 inchs from my OME lift and a 2 inch body Lift. how does it handle with that lift and tire? how much gas it takes now? and how much power lose ? thank's
