    I have a 2012 DCSB 4x4 and I want to keep my stock wheels but put on 285/70r17 tires. I have a 3 inch pro comp lift w/ aal. Here is a link to the tires I will be getting.

    https://www.treadwright.com/individual-product/187/GUARD DOG-285-70R17.00-D

    My questions:

    Will I need wheel spacers to fit these tires on stock wheels with my lift?
    Will I have to do any trim work to the fender wells?

    1.25 for 285's more than likely. Spidertraxx/Bora seem to be the popular choice.

    Here's my old 2012 with 285/70/17 and Spidertraxx(Lift was 885x coils, 5100s @0, and 2" Block).Not the sport wheels, but the TSS wheels...

    Did you have to run wheel spacers? Did they rub the inside fender well at all? Did you do any cutting?

    I already had the spacers on when I went to 285s, but I didn't have any rubbing or cutting.

    What size spacers did you use? I was told by a tire shop that by using spacers my driving comfort will decline, is this true?
