    I expect to have to break out the sawzall- but couldnt find any other threads on anyone else running the following up front:
    eibach springs
    5100s set to .85
    285/75/16

    Wondering if you had to cut out the entire wheel well or an amatuer with a sawzall can 'pull' off

    As I type those size BFG ATs are going on to some TRD anthracite rims with a front lift a little over 2", I hope I can make enough of a right turn to get it in the driveway.... :eek:

    They are used so I got them for $600 + whatever they hit me with for TPMS transfer/disposal/alignment/etc. Merchants guy said they were driven over a weekend and then exchanged for white letters... I looked at all four and would say 300 miles max maybe :confused: Couldnt say No compared to what the Duratrac quote was, but at least they were 265s..

    Ill post up some pics, of course

    Guess the smaller wheel was more of a variable than I thought it would be-very minimal rub:D
