Fitting 285s

Treadwright run big. They remold them so they sit higher than most 33. 33.1 if I remember.

I have test fit 35s.

 

Ah ok, mine are only 32.8 with being 285/75/16.

 

Yes they are 285/75r16.

You can't go off tire size numbers. Every manufacturer is different. You must measure the tire.

 

You da man. Lol. I love to debate when it's constructive.

 

Anyone running 285/70/16......?

 

Nitto says that would be 31.89 and 11.5 cross section. But how would this size look???

 

i'm between the nitto ridge grapplers in either 285/75/17 or 295/75/17

i know i know. a lot of cutting and trimming and lift a long with uca.

the 285/75/17 grapplers measure mounted roughly 33.5ish, nitto says 33.86

 

I just put on some 285/75/17 ridge grapplers with some SCS F5's and they fit great with caster around -3.6* with icon stage 4 lift. They barely nick the cab mount at all. I will still have the CMC done for full stuff at full lock and have done some moderate trimming so far. Too early to tell what will need to be done after taking them off-road. The offset of the F5's is the absolute sweet spot for these tires in my opinion.

 

My 265/70r17's rub in reverse with a 2" lift.

 

Hard to believe they would fit on a stock rig.

 

Could be the backspacing on my SCS F5's though.

 

Most likely. My level 8 trackers rubbed with stock tires. Even after a cmc and leveling it out it still rubs a little. Hoping spindles will get it away from the body a little more

 

Not stock. 3" lift. And what backspacing are your F5's? Mine are 4.3"
