    Not too much yet but getting there;) 20%tint all around(yes over factory tint too), blue LED lighting all around inside, Cobra CB with dual antenna setup, Window visors, hood protector, blacked out headlights, trd driving light mod, Fog light mod, 6k 55w Headlights and 3k 35w fog lights, blacked out toolbox in the bed, custom built sliders done by my buddy, blacked out stock wheels wrapped in 265/75/16 Dick Cepek Mountain Cats, Debadged emblems, Custom plate winch bumper with an Warn M8000, Grill craft mesh grill with two 6" HID converted offroad lights with 6k 55w HIDs as well.
    I recently installed and OME coilover lift with blistiens shocks and aal in the rear. I was running 265/75/16 Mountain Cat by Dick Cepek. They looked a bit skinny and small after lifting.

    So I decided to get the same tire but in a 285/75/16.

    Come to find out they rub like no other on the Control arm. So I'm back to my 265s. I guess I'll either get spider trax and the 285s or keep running my 265s until they wear out and get a tall and skinny.

    What is everyone's two cents? I guess I could get new wheels with a different BS but that's a lot of extra shekels that I don't have.

    Sell the 265s & stock wheels for 16s with 4.5" bs, good to go.

    Stock wheels dont have enough bs to clear 285's. Either new wheels with proper bs or spacers.

    Stock rims do have enough to clear 265's with a lift, right?

    With a 2.5'' or 3'' lift, it should clear the 285's

    height wise yes it will clear. but width not so much. even with 285s he'll need to do some trimming of the fender and pull the mud flaps to avoid rubbing.
