Here are some pics of my new wheels and tires. I got the 16" MT Classic Locks with BFG AT KO's 285/75/16's. All for about $1300 installed (my friends dad in Utah owns a tire shop so installation was free as well as a discount on the tires.)
I do have some rubbing issues. I cut the plastic where it was rubbing, part of the mud flap assembly. But I still have some rubbing. There is a lot more plastic I can cut out. I'll deal with that this weekend. I need to measure to see how far each side is lifted, it appears that my right front is lower than my left front side. A couple turns with the spanner wrench will fix that. I took a pic of how high I have the c/o's lifted, this is where Bill left them. Is it ok to go higher?
Opinions: I like the way the truck looks. I think it would look better if I put the deavers 10 pack in the rear. I seem to have lost 1-2mpg on the highway, but my truck was hauling all our stuff: my old tires, guns, ammo, clothes, ect at 80+mph. I still need some time to really see how much mpg I've lost with the wheels/tires. The power is down too, to be expected. I got the tires in Utah, and the elevation there is like 4500ft. I was pissed at how slow the truck was. Now that I'm back in So. Cal. the truck is faster again. Elevation sucks a big one! The ride has gone down, and tires tramline like a mofo... I catch every crack on the freeway. Handling is worse too, those larger side walls flex! But all this is to be expected with larger tires. Although my time was limited, I did get a chance to go off road, it handles the dirt well. Overall I love the new setup and wouldn't change it at all. I think this is the biggest tire I would want to go with, any larger and it'd really suck the power out of the truck.
