LR UCAs and Bilstein 5100s

What's your caster at ?

 

Well that's intetesting

 

Where the fender meets the body in the wheel well. The only place in the rear of the wheel well that's not flat.

 

I don't remember, been 2 years or so since I ran 255s but I would imagine 2.5*

51lbs

 

51 maybe

 

My daily commute is 85 miles round trip and almost completely free way. Although the tires are heavier I was thinking my mpg wouldn't be hurt that bad. I don't do much start and stop driving and it would lower my rpms at 70 mph.

 

no there are I believe a few companies with 255.85.16 and 255.80.17 tires

Cooper S/T
KM2
Super Swamper Thornbird
Maxxis Bighorn

 

I know there are a bunch of 255/85/16 , but not 255/80/17

 

Well I posted pictures of my truck sooner... Just in the wrong damn thread haha

 

Looks good. Which tire did you go with?

 

This was LR/5100s set @ 2.5 sitting on NTG 285/60/18s with 9" wheel and 4.5 backspacing with caster at 2.7 on the 05 AC. The flaps were removed and nothing rubbed anywhere but when I changed to GY Duratracs 275/65/18s, the plastic box at the bottom front of the wheel well liners had to be trimmed. NTG = 31.6 OD & GYD = 32.1 OD.


NTGs.......


GY Duratracs..............

 

They were 255/85/16 Maxxis Bighorn.


No rubbing at full lock and some moderate flexing.

 

i just put 285 70 17 with 2.5 in lift and 1.25 wheel spacers and trimmed a little bit still one spot left to trim but all is well i put hankook dynapro mt
