    5100s set at 2.5 1.5 AAL
    Hello TW I thank u all for the help from the information you post, I need your help again....I have a 2009 4X4 access cab 4 cylinder. after looking around on TW i ordered 5100s for the front and a 1.5 aal for the rear from wheelers. I also bought some 16in procomp 7089s. my question for you all is I am going to go with Nittos and am really having a hard time with deciding between the 265 75 16s and the 285 75 16s. I think that the 285s will look better and wont mind some minor trimming but I do not want to deal with anything major and also am afraid that I wont have enough power and might possibly run into other problems down the road. any advice will be a great help....I am just sitting here ready to order and losing my mind trying to figure it out

    285's will get you to do some trimming and cutting, and harsh on the 4 banger. I would at least regear if you are going this way!

    265/75/16 and you'll be fine.

    I'd save your money for other mods right now, get the 265's for shure.
