through the river and over the woods.
285/75/R16 119R Load Range D BF Goodrich All-Terrain T/A KOs. Have about 250 miles on them and need to sell...my wheels are too offset and i dont want to get stock ones. I got the same fuel mileage with these tires as i did with the stock ones.

Sweet! Where'd you finally get those put on?

They look great even with the Spreewell Spinnaz... :flipoff2:

So does that mean you're coming to Paragon at the end of the month to break them in? :princess:
 
And you got way more snow than we did down here, though it's still snowing...

I'd take my truck out, but I've got a sweet spot right out front for Tues... :flipoff2:
 
dudeeeeeee take it out!!! wait, dont you have the BFG Mud tires? Thats not sucha good idea, leave it there. These tires are awesome in the deep stuff, but my LTX M/S was better on the packed stuff. And i put them on, well helped put them on at the shop next to my old house. I was originally going to buy them from him but i found a price more than 20 bucks cheaper. he still mounted them for me. 80 bucks mounted and balanced for 5 tires. Even helped me swap my spare which ive never even taken down. that was a fun adventure.

Neill, you wouldnt believe how much snow is in front of my garage door and theres 2x as much in front of my front door to my house...i feel like im upstate or in colorado or something. Oh and one more thing, ill take your LEXUS wheels if you want mine so badly...i mean, i have the stock lexus spare wheel and all!




Just an observation, ive already gotten some looks and a couple compliments on how my tires fill up the wheel wells nicely....and its been like what....5 hours since i put them on?

highway speed is good, handles fine at 50-70. I donno if speedlimiter bouncing would be advised with these tires but maybe.

Looks great yo! Now take them there tires and such and break them in at Paragon at the end of the month with us all...
 
ok, so i have a little rubbing due to my "Spreewell Spinnaz". You guys know on the inner fender liner near where the stock running boards bolt up, how it kind of bubbles out at the very bottom? the tire rubs there after uhm about 260* turning to either side from center. I donno if it rubs the fender under full compression, im lead to believe it does but who knows. I know the stock tires just barely missed alot of things with those wheels.

Anyways, time to break out the dremel....

...friend used a saw-z-all on his jeep, but this isnt nearly as severe, just a little ol dremel should be the ticket. I will keep you guys posted and in awe of my beautiful p-diddy/Spreewell Spinnaz.

oh and macneill, i should be good to go w/ you guys. I donno if you all are driving out together, but if you are, ill meet up with you guys for the cruise out there.

Loud- I'm really surprised you rub with a 33" tire. I guess it's the tire width and your wheel offset combo. I'm curious what your wheel offset is?
 
i wish i knew...how do i measure? I have a few spare wheels i could use to measure.
 
well I'm torn. my bumper, inner fender linners(cut it off but they did) and that black box in the driver side front well. I'm assuming that's the battery/washer fluid protector. So what do I do? get stock wheels or get these tires in stock size? or go back to lame ltx m/s? if I go with different tires....anyone who wants the 285s can get them at a great price. I kind of want to keep my odometer correct too.

please guys...I need some input
 
Trim the fender liner, bumper and washer bottle protector. You can see where I trimmed the fender liner and modded the pinch weld in this thread. You might not need to cut/mod as much though. This is with 35's and 1.25" wheel adapters. I can probably take a picture of the trimmed washer bottle protector and trimmed bumper as well.

Odometer can be fixed with $100 speedo correction box. If you don't want to do the trimming, go back to stock offset wheels or stock tire sizes.
 
1loudlx, I have the same tires and there's no rubbing at all in any condition. It must be the rim offset.
 
oh i know it is the wheels. Hmmm i found a 60 series owner who might be interested in taking mine. If he does, ill just buy 4 275 bfg at's and sell him the 5 285s i bought for that price.

Anyone on Mud in somewhere near my remote area just get a LC and looking to get 285s? I know i could just get stock wheels, but i want to be stubborn, difficult and retarded...you know how us New Yorkers are.

I stopped the bumper rub, it was due to one of the tabs being ripped off, so i put a screw in it and made it stay in stock positon, because it was only rubbing that side. Now it still rubs the fenders on the highway during compression and rubs the washer fluid tank protector when im in reverse and full crank to the right.




This was something i wanted to try using my wheels. Oh well im going to go with stock size but keep the A/T tires...i love the look.
 
Spacers stick out the wheels more. But thats not my problem. My problem is my current wheels stick the tires out TOOO much and both front and rear rub under compression at highway speeds.

This will tell you how to measure

or you can "do da google"- (sorry, a little president humor) on the wheel style and manufacturer for a description. Our stockers are +60 offset on the 8 inch rim.
 
OK UPDATE...i just ordered the BFGs in stock 275/70 size. If these rub i might kill myself. Anyways should be putting them on friday, so whoever wants a set of one week old 285/75/16 BFG A-T T/A KOs, please oh please buy them from me!!!!
