    Thanks for the reply. It sounds like this will work with my setup with minor trimming as you mentioned. Would you mind sharing a few more pictures of your truck.

    Finally part of the skinny club. Went with the wildpeak AT4s, coming from the AT3, and that was a phenomenal tire for me, so I hope the same with these.74942023097__A7111213-AE2D-4555-A9FE-58062265F652.jpgRenderedImage.jpg

    Damn, my whole point of considering skinny is first improved mileage and snow/rain... secondly size increase...

    Sorry, no relevant photos other than my avatar. Toyo MT in 255/85/16. We have some big snow in the BC south east (1.5 m in about 2 weeks) and the MTs are not liking the compact snow and ice one bit.
    Instead of carrying chains like I do during hunting season, switching to the Nokians today. A man's gotta know his limitations.

    All modern cars lie about how much fuel is left in the tank. They always have a 1-2 gallon margin for the people who run it E so they don’t strand themselves.

    They suck in snow , the AT3w was way better, this was from The fast lane on YouTube. The acceleration test was just to get to 30 mph, and the braking distance was from 30 mph.

    Fuel pumps are bucketed in most modern cars to prevent against low tanks. But fair enough, both points can absolutely be true here.

    Yep, that was a good post you mentioned..nice job on your relocation...I read another thread about using a ratchet strap to pull it back while raising it...it worked...I figured out if I have an extra set of hands to crank spare up, all I had to do was push tire back toward rear, and that works also with no mods(but mods are more fun when done)

    went from FL (Broward) to NJ, NYC, Niagara Falls and back to NC and FL. They did pretty good, very good during rain (nearly 350 miles at 40-30 F), good on ice and snow closer to Niagara. Only once had rear axle skid on snow (did too much gas turning). Breaking was OK.

    Small lift, slightly oversized tires, well...
    The extra fuel is to cool the pump, not to make sure you have enough. Running modern fuel pumps low will shorten their lives.
