  1. Ok so I have an 03' LE bone stock.

    I ordered the OME lift, medium duty springs all around, kyb struts and shocks. 1" spacer for front struts so it sits level. I am looking to purchase some 15" or 16" rims with a backspacing for 4.25 since my factory 17's won't really work. I know I would have to remove the front mudflaps and maybe put 1.5" spacers on the front wheels so the tires or rims don't hit the cup porting of the strut. I would really like to throw some 285/75/16's on which equal: 32.83" diamtere, 11.22" width. Will they fit?! I see many people posting about this with the AC 2" lift but not with the Old Man Emu (OME). I should gain 1.75" over stock.

    What do you think?

    I would like to order these and make my decision asap so please reply on here or PM me

    thanks guys!

  2. Im not saying they will fail any quicker. When the thicker new pad was installed it moved the caliper out closer to the wheel, causing it to rub. The 15's were originally installed with year old brake pads and they cleared the caliper fine.

     

    And 275s will not fit without a lift, 265/75/16s will rub horribly without a lift. Without a lift the biggest you can run on stock wheels is 265/70/16s or 245/75/16s, about the same height but the 245's are not as wide.

     

    If I get 16" aftermarket wheels with 4" backspacing, how big can I go on tires? I have the factory LE 17" wheels now but I am lifting it next week with the OME lift.

  3. are u on a 17in rim tho? 255/75/17 is a 32 where as a 265/70/17 is a 31..... my pathy came with 245/65/17 stock and i got it lifted, im tired of street tires, i want me some offroad capable tires

     

    Hey man, I have an 03 LE with the same stock tires, I am lifting it 1.75" with the ome lift.

    How tall a tire can we go? Would 245/75/17 fit?
