    I had 4.5 backspacing xd enduros and without wheelspacers I was still really close to the USA with 285s so when I moved up to 295s I took the safe route. They might have cleared but i think it would have been to close for comfort. 4bs would be perfect because the further they stick out the more rubbing, but I like the look of the 3.5bs.

    I'll get a picture today. I kinda went a different route than most people on the website but it worked perfectly and I think it looks good.

    Also, once I figure out my schedule for March I'm gonna rsvp for the Gulches meet. Really hoping I'm free. I'm going to school in North Carolina next year so I need to go see out east more anyway!

    No, it's in Hickman county.. these are all public roads that are kept up by the county, the further you get back the harder the trails get because they are simply not kept up.

    These tires have done nothing but impress me. Perfectly smooth highway ride, quiet, and killer performance offroad. The lugs clean surprisingly well in mud, they have grip for days on the rocks and have not shown any problems after hundreds of miles on dirt roads.

    Not yet, I have heard good things about the snow performance (I'm sure they will be better than my old nitto trail grapps). We should be getting snow here pretty soon so I'll let ya know

    Awesome thanks! I know my nitto terra grapplers have let me down this winter. Slid into a cement wall a few days ago because I lost traction.

    I'd imagine pretty well unless it's ice and chains are needed. Still though, those tires are worth every bit of the 220 a piece I paid for mine. The MTs do even better off road but at 330+ per tire for the 34 and the 10# extra, no thanks.

    We have a local guy selling 6 MTs 35x1250r17s for 800. I think 2 are new and 4 are 50%. I'm just not liking the thought of the cutting needed. Not sure if I ever will.
