    285 primarily relates to the width, not height :p


    I'll have my strap, probably some wood and shovel and some basic stuff. Between everyone there should be no prob with recovery gear like Taylor said.

    True but a 285/75 is also taller than a 265/75 because of the way metrics work...and I have no idea how they calculate it lol!

    285/70;

    285mm tire width.
    The 70 tall represents 70% of the 285mm width; from wheel to end of tread

    Yea the circumference is a % of the radial width and aspect ratio. Still it's less bearing on the height than the aspect ratio # though.

    Well I knew that already...What i'm saying is that the only number changing is the 1st, in this case 265 to 285...so the 285 not only wider (obviously) but taller! Thats the weird formula I don't get...how do they get taller?

    Because 70% of 285 is larger than 70% of 265 ;P

    Trying to get the lift before the run. Just need to figure out if I want to run 5100s with 885s or run the full OME set up.

    I like the OME shocks and 885s
    I had Eibach 1.6 set on .85 on 5100s on my prerunner.
    OME is a matched setup and I prefer the ride even though it is a 4 wheel drive instead of 2.

    Get the OME shocks and springs.
