    Havent had an issue @265/75/16. Might be more of a problem with a wider tire though.

    I'm looking to go narrower.

    Now that I think of it, I am running 265/70r17 right now, so I guess I know the answer to my question!

    Thats the size i run for my winters. I have to be honest, my 255s look silly from the front with all that room between the inner fender and sidewall of the tire, i may venture into the 285 realm when these are finished.

    And what Canandian wouldn't want to fly that flag!

    How do you find the 255 Mud Terrains? I assume they are great on the trail, how about on the road?

    They're actually pretty decent, i don't notice much of a difference in mileage and they did faily well at the pipeline. They're 'rough' on the road, typical for mud terrains, but if you dont mind how skinny they look head on, rheyre a really good tire

    Tacos don't even need sway bars!


    And yeah, the tires are hard on the little 4 banger!

    Although I find myself speeding everywhere ever since I installed the header, gotta go a little easier on the gas with all that extra power ;)
