    Just purchased BFG A/T KO2 265/70/17 for my 2017 SR. Does anyone know if they will run against the air dam?

    Highly doubt you’ll rub but it depends on what wheels you’ll be running.

    Ive got 265/70r17 on my 2016 SR with method 701 wheels. No rubbing anywhere. But it depends more on the offset of the wheel.

    No, it shouldn’t rub. Should go ahead and remove that silly air dam anyway. Looks better without it tbh. I have 265/75/16 (basically the same size as 265/70/17) with a -12 offset wheel and 1 inch of lift. If you have mud flaps you’ll have to remove them
    Here’s my truck

    That’s super nice! Mine didn’t come with the mud flaps and I do agree about the air dam probably will take it off

    I purchased them online just waiting for them to get here. I did all my research and figured they would fit but just wanted to be sure

    Cool. If they don’t then you simply tell the wife you need a lift...see you in divorce court with a cool lifted taco...
