a few guys here have 295's, but they have 295/40's not 45's that i know of.
chgames comes to mine, he was one of the 1st to get good pics up of his tires. most of those guys are over at nhtoc now though so not sure how much respose you will get.

they will work though
a few 03 guys even have 305's on there

Cool, I want to keep the % of tire meat the same, hence 45 as stock HD tires. Just want to get wider hence 295. I was just wondering if the 295 even fit. Thanks! I wonder if it would look wierd, like to wide on the HD rim?

nope it looks perfect. But if you get 295/45 it will have a bigger sidewall than the 275/45's because the sidewall is a ratio in comparison to the width, so if you want to keep really close to the OEM HD tire size, 295/40's will be just about perfect. i think they are just a tiny hare smaller, but look schweet my next tires will be 295/40's

I have the 295/45/20 Toyo Proxes S/T's and I think they are a great upgrade!!! They are a little taller but fill out the fenderwell perfect. Check this link...http://www.picturetrail.com/gallery/...8016&members=1

Those are the ones I want! Toyos are great, look and least damn near forever. How much did they end up running you?

I got the tires locally from Kauffman Tire. I had someone that bought my new stock Goodyears for 130.00 a tire and I paid 225.00 per tire for the Toyo's. Kauffman tire also owns this company called Treadepot.com
