    Just cut like you did on mine and he'll be good! At the closest point to the cab mount (turned and fully stuffed) I'm almost 2" clear. I've got close to 3 degrees + caster, which helps.

    Safe bet you don't have a driveway like the DYF driveway/tank trap. If you did, it would have been declared a OHV park by now.

    The switch from a 265/75r16 load range C to ANY 285/75r16 Load range E would put a dent in gas mileage. I knew that going in. That said, I'm happy with the results....I went from 19mpg to 21mpg (depending on hwy or city) with the duratracs to a 17 or 18 average with the STT Pro's. Take into consideration I drive like I'm the lead car in a funeral procession most of the time. (No need being in a hurry....Gives my adoring fans a better chance to view me!) Ride quality is BETTER with the Coopers. I run lower air pressure (29psi vs 38) That helps. And the Duratracs are known as rough riding tires...I guess that's earned...

    All things equal, I'm VERY pleased with 'em!
