    You should be fine with those. I’m running that size on 2.25” lift and 0 offset and I have plenty of room. If you get a 255/80/17 with the -10 offset you’ll rub.

    Little bit of this and that
    My "small" skinnys showed up yesterday. Hope to have them mounted tomorrow if I can get into my local tire shop.

    Nice! Are you on stock gearing? Notice a big difference? More pics please! Been thinking about this set-up when my current tires wear out.

    I was on a heavier tire/rim before this and yes I noticed a difference. Will grab a few pics tomorrow - anything particular?

    Will let you know! The price was right and the couple of reviews I had read seemed to indicate these are pretty good. I drive mostly highway with some dirt/snow thrown in for good measure a couple times a year.

    those Yokos look burly. I think there have been a few more options released since I got my M55’s

    I don't believe there is a 255/85r17. The 255/85 combo is only in 16" wheel sizes. I recently had 255/80r17 installed and I don't rub from normal daily driving (front mud flaps removed). I haven't had a chance to test it off road yet. And I have a 17x8 wheel with +15 offset on stock suspension.
