    The only rubbing on these, occurs when wheels are locked out. And it's only on the UCA, no rubbing on wheel well... But that's also because the offset(or lack of) on these stock 16" wheels, sucks

    @justguth threw on some very minimal wheel spacers and boom zero rubbing and the tire sits beautifully inside the wheel well

    I actually purchased the Spidertrax 1.25" when I was getting the tires, but I figured I'd let 'em ride and see how it worked. I mean, I rarely have to lock out my steering, so it's not a huge issue so far

    With 285's? I would assume that they would be pretty darn close to my 16" with 285's(both are a 0 offset and tire o.d. is about the same) BUT I'm in the same boat as you, wanting to save some mpg's with something in the 275 range... Flip a coin? Lol

    Fake beadlock. I almost pulled the trigger on a wider wheel and went up to a 35, but chickened out last minute. I want to try the 275s for a bit

    Just giving you shit, I couldn't make the jump to 35s. I am going to stair step like everyone ends up doing. Just a few mods, then you need more to get the same rush and before you know it monster truck

    Has anybody ever used one of those amp & sub woofer combined units before? I'm thinking about trying one out. My friend mentioned this Planet Audio unit, but I have no personal experience with them. I don't want to watch my windows wobble or rattle out my screws. I'd just like some more balanced tunes.
