Re: Tire Size

I recently put 285/75-16 Goodyear Wranglers on mine and had no trouble with rubbing, although I had already turned up the torsion bars prior to the new tires to level it out. The mechanic said some still rub even after turning up the torsion bars. Without a lift I don't know if I'd go much bigger, plus if you go much bigger you lose more power due to the larger diameter basically changing your gear ratio and the mass of the tires. As soon as i figure out how to get pictures on here I will so you can have an idea what it looks like.
