BFG 315/70R17 KO2 Measured Size and BS

Well it looks like I will have to bring out the BFH to make some room on the bottom of my fender wells for thirty fives! I wonder if its almost better to just cut out the bottom front section?

 

Only issue with that is dirt, mud and whatever else gets sucked into the engine bay from that hole

 

Yea I was thinking that as well creating a weak point in a bending area of the core supports. I plan to just whack it for now and let nature take care of the rest. I don't know how erok rolls with 37s on LT without blowing up stuff.

 

Did you get them on?

 

Unfortunately man I had a crazy weekend with work and already dropped the truck off...I did get some basic measurements of the tire height though...34 inches seemed to be about the height for them. I was a little bummed to notice that I might have to indeed cut more on my CMC which doesn't really have much left.

 

That sucks, does your long travel UCAs have any caster adjustment in it?

 

I know they got some adjustment, but Im def gonna have to bring out the BFH in order to clear out the fender well a little bit.

 

Was hopping you could move forward a touch so you don't have to go back into the CMC.

 

We will see what happens, but Im sure I will see some action when I go off-roading next time.

 

I have 315/70/17 BFG ko and they still rub on the front fenders with my 6in pro comp lift.

 

Would you mind measuring the height of the tire on the truck? Would also like the wheel width and tire pressure.

 

I’ll get some measurements soon.

 

Thanks!

 

Did you get a chance to measure those tires?

 

@Tacomandan08 did you measure your tires?

 

Hey sorry about that, from the floor the the top was 33ins. Not sure what my psi is at because i lost my tire pressure gauge.

 

Oh yea to give you a heads up...I did measure mine and with a 17x9 rim my tires are right at 33.5 inches. If you had a more narrow wheel than mine then I would expect a little more height.

 

Yeah i have the method roost wheels on my truck. Pretty sure they’re 17x8.5

 

Thanks guys!
