    Your caster looks visibly low. With the UCA you should be able to adjust it higher and move the tire forward in the wheel well and away from the cab mount.

    I love them so far. Took a short trip down some mud roads yesterday. They did great. Low noise, good road manners. Only thing I noticed is at interstate speeds, it’s not quiet as stable feeling in crosswinds.

    I’m at 34 currently. Now when I was headed home on the interstate, they were at 44, which is quite possibly why they were so squirrelly. I haven’t been back on the interstate since I lowered the pressure. I’ll know for sure this weekend.

    My bad, that's a good number. It's curious you would rub with +3

    Many people have stated they have better results running them in the low to mid 30s psi. I'm still trying to decide between the 255/85 ST Maxx or the 265/75 kO2's. I can get the KO2s way cheaper ($712 incl tax & mounting) thru work, but the Maxx's are very tempting. Good luck, hope you like them.

    Any chance you have gotten to test out the KM2 in snow? Have you ran ST Maxx for a comparison? Thanks for any info.

    Looking at 255/85/16s for my truck; probably ST Maxx. I have aftermarket 16x8 rims with 0 offset and 4.5 backspace. No lift, no extra weight. Would the 0 offset negate any rubbing issues, or should I hold off and do tires with a 2.5" lift and UCAs?

    I’m not sure what rubbing you are referring to. Maybe that backspacing will cause rubbing, but factory wheels don’t have any rubbing issues.

    Any rubbing. UCAs, fender wells, etc. This stuff is all new to me. Just trying to learn before I dump a bunch of money into something that's going to require monkeying with to get the best results.

    Gotcha. The aftermarket wheels may cause rubbing. I can’t speak on that. I have stuffed and flexed mine with factory wheels and haven’t had any rubbing at all. I’m sure someone on here is running the setup your asking about.

    Looks good!

    Those JBA arms are the ones I’m going to buy and I’m going with 255s on stock OR wheels. But are you running wheel spacers? On the JBA site it says 4.5” backspacing is required with them. Any chance you could snap a pic of the clearance between tire and arm?
