    285/75/r16, this post isnt to show off my new tires but i posted this thread because i have a question. when i turn the wheel all the way the steering wheel vibrates, is that bc the tire is rubbing on the frame?

    It might be rubbing the inter wheel well. Do a little cutting.

    Probably rubbing on the inner fender flare and the cab mount.

    Lrgrnr, Love the addicts on your truck. Thinking about getting some with 285/70/17 duratracs. Did you have rubbing? How much trimming or cutting did you have to do to prevent rubbing?
