    OME up front, Dakar in the back, Elite front bumper, Warn winch, Tactical rear bumper with tire swing/jerry cans/hi lift, Revenge Fab. sliders, Tundra brakes, Camburg UCA's, Safari Snorkle, FJ TRD wheels, Lights, CB, Switches, skids, LED's... OH MY!
    i love the look of 285/75 on a 2002 DC with 3" coilover lift but was wondering what everyones experiences have been as far as wheeling? how bad is the rubbing at full compression? i hadn't had the chance to test it out when i had my truck last and was looking to put the 285/75 back on the truck when i get it back.

    thoughts? pics of anyone wheeling with this setup?

    1 owner 2002 TRD, SR5, DC, 2.7. Full OME suspension, STT pro's.
    OME 881 coils with OME nitrochargers shocks up front. TC UCA's OME Dakars with extra leaf in the rear. Warn 8000 winch with 80ft custom braided synth line. Custom 60ft synth extension. All pro tube bumper, Hi-lift jack, Safari Snorkel, Wilco tiregate. 2019 Jeep JLUR.
    Did some heavy wheeling in a creek bad last nite using that setup. Compression is good but at full stuff the rear tires will force the rear of the fender bottom to "crease" its small and hardly noticable.
    Can't get any pics up right now, im on my phone but I,ll try later.
