Tire size help?????

[2DR4EVR]

These are 17's on mine. It was the smallest size this particular rim came in and everyone told me I would need to lift it in order to make it fit. So I scratched the idea because I can just barley get into my garage and parking structures that I use.

Had a miscommunication with the shop and he ordered them anyway. They showed up a few months later when they finally shipped. Low and behold they fit....had to trim the airdam just a bit. There a **** hair away from rubbing on tight turns but they stay clear. T Bars are cranked up and they sit fairly flush with the fenders. All in all a nice aggressive stance. Might lift it down the line when all the other wish list items are checked off.

18's may be a different story though.

you sir are just wrong. wrong in every possible way. i've had 7 different 325 60 20 terra grapplers that came off of H2's on my tahoe and all 7 of them rode smooth as can be. nitto makes one of the smoothest riding tires you can buy. but what do i know. i just have 4 years experience at a tire shop with them.

he knows his personal experience and own likings. dont knock him for it.

2dr4evr, what are the specs on your wheels/tires?? The wheels I wanted are also only available in 17" and up..

I'm out of town now but when I get back I'll check......As I mentioned, I was told they wouldn't work (from various shops). Not against lifting but it would make my life a giant pain in the ass. Went down to the local offraod shop and said give me a tire that will fit this....and that's what they rolled out. It's a little tight, but I got full range on the wheel.

Your from Altoona? I used to fly props into there back in my US Air Express days. That place would scare the crap out of me in the winter. Got to be on your A game coming in during a winter storm at night! Would hop from there to Johnstown and back to PIT.

as far as being OBS and stock height, i'd do some 17's and 285 70 17s..

but why not do something with the suspension? small lift/lower. be more creative. just my $.02

I think i may have to pull my foot out of my mouth on this one. just hopped on nitto's website, it is quit possible that the ones i am seeing all the time are the mud grapplers. but I know we have had problems with cupped terra grapplers, most likely from lack of rotation

Does no one like the machined rockstars? The 2011s. I think they're so sweet.

I also like these with different center caps.
