only deflated enough to fit it, mine didn't need to go so low to set the light off. I fit a 255/80 under a non-KDSS none tow package truck.

The scrub radius is the distance in front view between the king pin axis and the center of the contact patch of the wheel, where both would theoretically touch the road. The kingpin axis is the line between the upper and lower ball joints of the hub.
Without getting too technical the biggest difference for 4X4 vehicle is how bigger tire and wheel offset impact vehicle fitment.
For example comparing stock tire to popular 285/70R17 with popular - 12mm offset result it 54 mm more scrub radius compared to stock.
Awesome man, thank you, and what a great calculator at tiresize.com, I'll be sure to use it

Did you use any of the thin spacers that came with the SSO kit?
No, I have them set aside if I ever Fab up something heavy like a rear bumper.
Rather than create a new thread, figured I’d post here for some help.
I found a used set of Method wheels and not sure if they’ll fit. The seller had them on a Silverado but they look like GX470 specs:
I’m planning on running them with 265/70/17 AT tires on stock suspension.
Will I have any issues? Thanks in advance.

My driveway has an incline, but the GX has a 0.75-1" rake. When loaded for camping it is level.

Hotness right here ^^^^
Beautiful, love the wheels!
Thanks! I was hesitant on going up to an 18" wheel, but this tire size still has a good amount of sidewall for off-road.
Wheels: SCS Ray 10's 17x8.5 -10mm Matte Gunmetal
Tires: LT285-70-17 C load
Spacers: None
Lift: Dobinson's 2.5" medium springs with comfort valved rear shocks.
Other Mods: SPC UCA's set to position B.
There was substantial rubbing. I had to move fender liner forward and cut where factory running boards meets body mount. I'm going to use a heat gun on the liner towards the back of the front wheels due to the fact that it rubs in reverse. Most importantly, BMC will be done this weekend. It rubs a good amount before full lock.

I'm brand new here! I've been watching from afar for quite some time now but finally pulled the trigger on a clean 05 GX over Labor Day weekend. Can't wait to hit some trails!
