Finally got my 285's put on today, and I think they look pretty good. But there isn't much room to spare, I think when I go off-roadin they might rub a little bit, but oh well. I'll fix that when the time comes.

Lookin' Good Mud Bud!!! Have you cranked up your T-Bars yet?

 

Hey Mudder!
I have 285's and after bouncing around the dunes, if they were going to rub they would have surely done it there. I checked all around the front and back wheel wells and no sign of rubbing. I think you will be OK.

BTW if you still have your old E-mail adress, Check it for some pictures I sent you

Thanks guys. Here are some pics of my old 265's next to my new 285's:









I like how these new ones ride, the ride is pretty smooth with these tires, and you can tell that the Edlebrocks help a lot with new tread.

Looks more gooder!

There shouldn't be any problems with articulation. You'll do fine.

 

Thanks Nomo, I'm really happy with them. Yeah, I think they will be ok, I haven't seen any rubbin over the last couple days.

 

What are you going to do with your 265s?
If selling, how much?
Email me.

Truck looks great with the 285's. You are a great help with the information that you provide, as well as the pics.
