Added 29's, and rear suspension mods
« on: September 19, 2004, 12:45:48 PM »
In my webshots, I've got a few pics of the new Dayton Timberline MT's, 225/75-16's. 29.30" tall, 8.9" wide shown installed. Compare to stock 235/60-16 (27.10" tall, 9.25" wide). Currently there is slight rubbing while turning on flat concrete. The front tires rub on the plastic liner in the front of the wheelwell and on the rear. No lift in front hurts this clearance for sure. Any suspension cycling will definately rub the tire on the backside of the wheelwell as well as front. Trimming the front plastic well is an easy and simple solution for the front of the wheelwell. For the rear portion, it's a little more difficult. See pics. I've pulled that plastic clips out to help with the 'smooth' rubbing till I get my body lift parts (uhmm polyethylene) together.

jagular,
I will have to take and send you some pics of what I did to clear the 245/75's in the front.

Take some pics BK. I am looking at a set of 245/75's right now and was going to ask you how bad they are.
