Bilsteins/865's/Tires?

[titan305]

I got my Bilsteins, 865's and front diff drop delivered the other day. I also have two yellow 10mm spacers I am debating placing on the rear.

I am really undecided on the tires. I am leaning towards the Hankook mtr or the toyo open country mt 285/65/16. I may even put bfg's or Nitto TG on.

I am having the lift done by my local shop and not sure if I should have them place the 10mm spacers on the rear or not.

Should I put them on and go with 295's or leave them off and go with the 285's??

I am guessing it's only going to add a 1/2 inch or so to the rear but I'm not sure.

Any suggestions. I will level it out and want the wheels and lift to look good. I have searched everything and cant decide by the pics and some folks dont have all the info I need in the sig.
Thanks

Are you planning to stack two 10mm spacers per side in the rear, using 4 total? two on each side would add an additional .5" to your rear lift... one 10mm trim packer on each side would be about 1/4"... doesn't seem like much until you have everything finished and you want a little more lift... If you crank up the factory tbars all the way this will look good... i am also running OME 865's in the rear (2" coils) and am not putting my heavier tbars on until i put a bumper and winch up front... i have cooper 285/75/16 MT's now and they look kinda small to me but they are about at the end of their life cycle and getting replaced soon... if you are starting fresh with all the components you are adding i would go with 295/75/16's and you shouldn't have any rubbing problems... i also have a diff drop on now btw... by the way if you live near a pep boys they have the hankook dynapro mt's on sale now buy 3 get 1 free... they have good reviews look good and are a pretty good deal right now...

i will try to post a pic for you for reference...

I was planning 1 10mm on each side. I'm not sure if I should add it or not. I guess with or without them 295's would look good.

I like the tread pattern on the Hankooks and check on pep boys.

Yeah, a pic would be great. Thanks
