Hmmm... another item in this thread... if you want to go 33x12.50 does that imply 15" rims? I believe someone also tried that in a shop and it did not work - the brake calipers were too big. Someone correct me on that one if I am wrong.

Yes, the 285s rub the skirt at 70% turn. No adjustments needed on the steering stops.

Also, under compression in the rear fender wells there is rubbing with the 285. A 35" tire (or equal in 315?) will not fit unless further modifications considered. At that time, a 35" tire may cause structural damage to your axle if you wheel it.

There are probably going to be rubbing issues with skirt items. Pull out the heat gun and warp it if you concerned.

I think we are going to see alot of options open up right before Christmas. I would tend to believe that the holiday season is a big sales opportunity.

Daystar, Calmini and SLR will soon have there stuff out. Just stay tuned and be patient. Hell, I've been waiting since Feb. 26 with cash in the bank. I'll tell you about being patient.
Yeah i know about 6 on 4.5 lug pattern - they just sent the wrong set of wheels. I haven't really discussed what size wheel I was getting because I didn't feel like hearing the random bitching from people about how it's not "off-road worthy" and what not. I'm actually putting a 20" wheel on and a Nitto Terra Grappler in a 305/50/20 which is slightly shorter than the BFG's running about 32.08 inches inflated not under load. I'm hoping the slight difference in height will make up for the width issue (305 is WIDE!) and I'll be able to clear the tires with not too much hacking in the fender well. I did talk to somebody who put a 305 width on his '05 X, but he said he was running without a front bumper so he doesn't know how much cutting is involved. If the 305s dont fit tomorrow, it looks like I'll be throwing on a set of 18s with 285/60/18s Nitto Terra Grapplers. I really want the 20s though so we'll see.
