should i have gone 285's?

i need some input, about a month ago i orderd and installed my spidertrax spacers, i am more than happy with thoes i just dont know if my tires are big enough now, should i have gone with 285/75's? or does this look ok as is. also how much more stance would i have with a 285. would it be worth it?

 

if it's your DD, I say no. for me there is no point just due to the further mpg decrease

 

I dont mind my 285.. but as obove post says no use if its just a DD

 

ya good point. its about 80% DD 20% camp rig right now. i think i would also go a/t and keep away from an m/t.

 

Yeah.... That also... CCstage 4 FTW!

 

what do you think of your 285's ghost

 

yea I'm about the same, and for the camping roads, my 265's kick ass!

 

I like my 275's

 

285's look awesome, but it's not worth the headaches in loss of MPGs and power. If you want the power back, then you're gonna have to re-gear and it's not worth it IMO for 285's esp if its your DD

 

I have 285's on my DD and I love them. I didn't like how my lifted truck looked with the smaller 265's. Yes you will lose a little mpg. I lost about 2 mpg but I did not notice any lost of power. I fish and hunt sometimes and the bigger tires are worth it.

 

If your okay with a tad bit of trimming 285's are worth it imo

 

mine is a dd and i love my 285's . here is some pics of my stance with 9" rims 4.5 backspacing.

 

I agree with the last couple posts... I have 285's on my DD and I wouldnt go back... and as for the loss in power or mpg's, its not a big enough difference to really regret getting the bigger meatier tires and im running mud terrains

 

Ditto-Except I roll with 295s and can't really say that power or has mileage is killing me or my wallet....I love having them for when I need them and don't regret having them all the time.

 

315's!!!!

 

X2!

 

wow did you do a cab mount delete.

 

Love my 285s but I kinda wish I would've got 295s. My truck is my DD and I don't really care about the MPGs... comes with the territory IMO.

 

Well, my commute to work is 2 miles one way lol, i already get around 17.1 mpg average so i think i still might go with 285s, i might see if someone with 285s will trade me, "not sure if anyone would" i only have 8700 miles about on my set of 265s. i just think they fill the truck out better. we will see.

 

I would just use out the life of the 265's then get whatever you want
