I'm running 255-65/16's. Thinking about replacing wheels with some 17's but if I bump up to 255/70 16's, the sidewall and height of the tire itself will add another inch. I think I'm going to stick with 10inch wide tires. I'm not much for the "bloated" look :wink:

Thanks, antenna works well there but plan to relocate to front bar to help clean up the look.

Cool. I've always thought it would look best on the front bumper. Good luck and keep us posted.

First tank after installing the 245/70/16 AT3s posted about a 1mpg loss or about 20mi per tank. I can live with that for the improvement in ride/looks!
