Getting ready to pull trigger on 285's

Pics of your 3ft lift?

 

255's are great, like 3/4" diff between 285's, hardly notice. When you have to air down basically no difference

 

Do it

 

255's?

 

lol got me

 

Difference between 255 and 285 is 30 mil which is about 1 1/4". Or you mean diameter?

 

285/75-16

 

Nice pic!!

How do you keep your headlights looking so good? On my 08 even after buffing they are not that clear.

 

275/70R17 Cooper ST Maxx's get mounted this Saturday morning.

Feel like a kid waiting for santa again... Will post pics when done!

 

Today is the day!

I the same stup, no rubbing. Plenty of members to vouch, and yes I wheel my truck hard, still doesnt rub.

Come at me bro.

 

Pics or it didn’t happen. There is no where to wheel hard east of the mississippi.

Name these plenty.

 

All set. Tires are quite heavy, definitely noticeable when driving but definitely something I can live with. Not too much louder than stock tires. Does rub slightly on some turns but should be an easy fix with the Dremel. Love the look and stance. Offset is exactly what I wanted.

 

Your going to rub all over when turning and hitting bumps.

But looks good!

 

Nice!! Can you post a side view of the rims?

 

Pics and vids in my build thread. Don’t feel like trying to link everything from my phone right now.

 

Was able to hit the fenders in the problem areas with the dremel and took her out to some trails to articulate the suspension to about the most you’ll ever see down here in South Florida and it looks as if it’s 99% rub free so far. If a front wheel is stuffed and turning at a specific angle it may barely touch some plastic but it is totally fine.

 

285 will rub all over even with a lift.

275s are the biggest tire with no lift and may still need some trimming.. I ran 275s for 3 years, plus your spare tire will still fit. A 285 spare won't fit...

On the street trimming may be good enough for 285 but off road with stock suspension will be rubbing a lot.. Then you will popping the fender flares off the truck ect.....
