Nice !I have a 21 Sport 4×4 running 285/70R17. 2.5" leveling kit for the front, cut the crash bars off, no rubbing.
Very cool!I have a 21 Sport 4×4 running 285/70R17. 2.5" leveling kit for the front, cut the crash bars off, no rubbing.
Any issues now with rubbing???? I am looking at the exact same set upI went an inch bigger in diameter 31.5” with 265/65/18 Duratracs
The stock one was 30.5” 265/60/18 Hankook Dynapro
No issues so far at 140 plus miles.
I think the issue would be the width, so I checked this first

According to the size calculator, the width is the same with the tires I chose.

Same here lol.
Nice! Did the 5100s lift the rear at all? While I don't want any real lift I've mostly narrowed it down to those or OME (yellow for yellow).
Yes, they raised it up in the rear quite a bit. This was taken the afternoon of the day I had them installed, and before I ran out of daylight lol.
Looks good! I saw that after coming across another of your posts. Notice much difference while driving? You went with 1.8"?Yes, they raised it up in the rear quite a bit. This was taken the afternoon of the day I had them installed, and before I ran out of daylight lol.
Thank you! Yes, 1.8 inch on the front height setting. Compared to the old stock worn out shocks and struts that were on it for 100,000+ miles. The Bilstein 5100s firmed up the ride and the front end doesn't dip, dive and wallow like it used to and the rear end doesn't bounce anywhere near as much as it did before the upgrade. With the firmer shocks and struts to me it reminds me of what my late Grandpas old farm truck rode like. Firm, but smooth and controllable.
Thank you for the reply, I am starting with 18 rims and there are more options at 17, kinda thinking I might want to go to 17's. However, I don't know what offset (pos or neg) I would need etc. Do not want to go to 35 tires, but I sure like the DuraTrak in 285.
A lot of us on here go with the +20 offset on the 17 inch aftermarket wheels. Mine are a 17x9 with the +20 offset.
You just made my day. I have been way too much research to satisfy my "let's overthink this"..... Very much appreciate this. I cannot afford to make a mistake and buy the wrong size. (I did that once with my jeep). ~tip of the hat, will send picturesA lot of us on here go with the +20 offset on the 17 inch aftermarket wheels. Mine are a 17x9 with the +20 offset.
You're welcome. Look forward to seeing your new setup.
