    I worked on the alignment with my shop. I told them what to do to position the wheel where I wanted in it the wheel well. I run 35x10.5R17 Kenda RT’s.
    All the important information is in the SPC instructions. If your alignment shop can’t understand them, find a different shop.

    Firestone told me next time they will charge me for UCA labor because of my SPC’s. I do also have the taco tabs that replace the caster and camber cams though so heavily aftermarket.

    I’m not sure the same width, and a half inch higher qualifies as skinny. 255/75/17 maybe. 235/80/17 for sure.

    But yes, great choice for your area.

    For a while there both 33's and 35's were suuuupppeeerrrrrr cheap and they sold out most places. I know a bunch of tacomaworld people bought them (myself included) they then went up in price quite a bit and are still hit or miss on stock. These things look MEATY!

    I'm hoping Mickey Thompson releases the Baja Boss M/T in the 255/85r17 size.
