    So stock 2017 off road wheels are good to go with 255 80’s? I saw backspace off set dimensions in the first thread. Don’t know what that is lol . I’m asking if I take my truck to have the 255/80 installed all they gots to do is take the stock tire off put the new ones on and off I go!

    Do you mean 255/85? The stock OR wheels are 16s, and I'm not sure 255/80/16 is a tire size that people actually make. 255/80/17s are a thing, but those won't fit the stock wheels cause they're not 17s.

    At any rate, 255/85/16 will fit for you, and if 255/80/16s are really a thing, theyd fit too because they'd be 32s and not 33s

    Anyone have some pics of 255/80/r17 on the TRD wheels? About to pull the trigger on some Cooper Max S/T and get rid of my 265/70/r17 KO2 bros. Thanks!

    Would not having a sway bar help fit wheels? Also won't that make me like roll the truck going around corners at 3mph?

    More for suspension travel and getting "true" independent front suspension. More or less: one wheel can go through it's entire range of motion while the other front wheel is on a stationary plane.
    The sway 'ties' both sides together.

    Haven't had mine on since our first trip to RRG. Never going back on. Did I roll over when we were on the way to Rush or in the park?

    Keep in mind I'm a 4 cylinder with those stiffer 885 coils. They're basically a sway bar of sorts.
