Put 255/85/16s on stock OR wheels and suspension

I.got bronze mb wheels just saving up.for either km2 or St pro

 

So is there a consensus on the likelihood of the STMaxx rubbing in this size on stock wheels/suspension?

I'm going to buy tires in a month or two and would like some feedback.

 

No rub here... stock OR suspension and OR wheels. I even have mudflaps.

 

Nah. I'm in the gray camp. Bronze is hot right now. But those grays will look great even as styles change

 

Def noticed a mild wander. Nothing crazy (5%?) but I will be less likely to steer with a knee for a few miles now while I upload pics to the forum in one hand, and drink coffee in the other More aggressive tread, E rated, stiffer, taller profile as a vehicle in general, and tiny bit narrower. Makes sense it would feel different tho. At slower speeds it actually feels more precise and nimble. Looking forward to the dirt

other than the slight wander described above. I'd say it feels sharp and predictable, seems to stay in and find gears better somehow. So strange how an inch or two can feel so much taller. Very happy. Whatever I gave up function I gained double in form. I'm keeping an eye on avg mpg now. Curious

 

What lift?

 

in this pic, Front is OME 887's and Rear is Dakar medium duty springs (were later changed out to Icon coilovers).

 

They’ll fit. I had some issues and had to put my truck back on the stock suspension. Still have 255/85/16’s on it. Had to trim a couple small sections of plastic that aren’t noticeable, but thats it

 

See the quoted link and post directly above this one. They’ll fit

 

@EubeenHadd I would like to see some pics of the Courser CXT when you get them mounted up.

 

Shitty pics, but here's what I have. Still need to deblue them. It was too cold for cleaning or beauty shots.

 

For comparison, here they are next to stock.

 

Those look great. Any issues with needing excessive weights when balancing?

 

Not that I know of but I just dropped it off at the shop for this. I'm not equipped to do my own tires yet lol. Were it me I'd go straight to dynabeads, simple one-shot balancing.

 

Look great. Love the profile

 

Those wheel wells are stuffed!

 

And not a hint of rub. Gonna do a sway bar delete next I think and see if we can induce some rubbing that way. If not, moar flex I guess.

 

@EubeenHadd did you pick these up off ebay?

 

No, Amazon actually. I was surprised to see them there, but I'm happy I did, I got 5% back on them for it lol.

 

I saw you mention somewhere that you had a bit of rubbing when first installed. Did you ever sort out where that was coming from? I've had 255/85/16's on 8" wide wheels before and thought it looked great compared to 7" width (no offense all of you OEM-wheel guys). I've settled on doing 265/75/16 because I'm not willing to cut into my truck. BUT if I can get away with this tire on a 16x8 with 0 offset without damaging the truck I may give it a go...

Thanks!
