so i got the the MT/R 305/70/17's installed today. I rub just a little on the drivers side doing a hard driver turn. since its only rubbing there, i may hold off on the chop. if its bad on the trail, then i will for sure get it done. but rubber on polished steel is not something that worries me. The tire measures a true 34"'s. So 35's will for sure need the chop. Keep in mind im only running a 3 inch lift.
I've read before, and I am not sure why...but it is only a rub on the drivers sided, on a drivers turn. pass side doesn't rub at all, nor does it rub on a hard pass turn. I don't quite understand how that is, with even loads sitting in the front seat...but it is what it is.
Anyway, i love the tires. an inch more rubber on the road makes it look cool. if you look directly from the back or front you can see the tires bubble out from the frame....i love it.
