Just had my 5 tires show up today! A day early They are BIG, really big when I've got them next to my stock tires

REALLY REALLY BIG

[TangoBravo]

So with these tires is a lift required or can be stock?

[Philberto]

I hope that was a joke.... Anything over 30.5", spacers AND lift!

and these are about 33" so I'm gonna guess that a lift and spacers is really required to get those on
going from 245/65r17 to 285/75r16

[TangoBravo]

yes it was a joke, sometimes my timing isn't that great. LOL it is clearly visible that those would NOT fit under stock platform.

Your timing sounds like mine, my ex gf hated the timing of my jokes also maybe that was the reason we broke up and not the fact that I never let her drive my truck...

[TangoBravo]

you know it sounded good in my head....but on paper, not so good. Oh well I have a thick skin aquired from years of badly timed jokes I suspect.

[SteveTB03]

That's what I always said to her also, but with most of us guys it always sounds good iin our head(s) whichever one you were thinking with at the time until the mouth speaks up then you messed up and your now in the doghouse.

I think I hijacked this thread enough

[Philberto]

I would just say it's because tone of voice doesn't carry through the internet too well.

[TangoBravo]

this is true sorry for the now back to buisness.

Now the big question... do all 5 sidewalls match?

[fishsticks]

Now the big question... do all 5 sidewalls match?

Bah who cares. Can't read em when the wheels are turning anyway.

[Trail X]

If they aren't... I wonder how well the construction is matched between the 5... that's what I was getting to... not so much the name.

Oh...well there's that.

[johnburgelin]

Now the big question... do all 5 sidewalls match?

Yes I made a request (which apparently is quite common) for 5 matching sidewalls, I got 5 nitto terra grappler sidewalls. You can apparently even request a specific brand if you so chose. I just wanted tires but I did want them all to match, I'm not a brand whore.

If they aren't... I wonder how well the construction is matched between the 5... that's what I was getting to... not so much the name.

They all seem very closely matched, and the sidewalls all look in great condition, as does the interior of each tire. I guess I'll find out tomorrow when I get them mounted and slap em on the truck.

............I'm thinking tonight is my last night in the garage, after installing my new springs on the front and spacers in the back I'm only an inch or two from tearing the roof rack off the truck. I'm actually excited

[Regulator1175]

I requested all five matched on BFG's, and if unavailable at least a 3 ply side wall. I am waiting to see what I get.

[HARDTRAILZ]

on their site...They will call if the sidewalls are not all from the same company. It says they try to have them match up perfectly.

[tbangert]

I only ordered a set of four for now and all came on Yokohama Geolander AT2's. When I get a 5th I will request the same but I'm not too worried about a 5th being different.

[johnburgelin]

I got the tires and mounted them up. They fit......literally just barely with no cutting (I do have markmc+z71+rough country in the back and rough country+87's in the front) I'm going to have to cut so that I won't rub when wheeling but for driving on roads I just barely make it in with no cuts.

[Zero]

At first I was excited when You said they fit, but then I kept reading and you mentioned you would still have to trim....that makes me sad.
