    Yeah, I'm running 285/60/18s and didn't have to cut the cladding either. I'm not sure if it matters, but I replaced the stock springs w/ OME 912s and crancked the tortions bars.
    Peace.

    Two thumbs up! I can confidently say from first hand experience you got the best looking best performing 285/60 tire for the VX by far! Looks sweet man you will love them they will last forever and make sure to rotate that spare in as often as you can TOD does no like small differences in tire hieght.

    I checked out your photo gallery. I just love the pictures, as they show a lot of detail. Yes, it does look like a very tight fit on the front when turning and they still clear without any rubbing-- that's awesome! I really like the way they "fill up" the wheel wells. Were your previous tires (in the Winter photographs) also 285/60R18 or were they a tad smaller size???

    ya the previous tires were 285/60-18 Goodyear Eagle GTII they had almost no thread so i decided to change them, i am really happy with the new terra grapplers so far, i seriously hear almost no noise compared to the other highway tires i dont know why.
    Also the Terra Grappler's made my ride a little higher im guessing the tread makes a big difference, now the antena hits everywhere in my garage.

    thanks for the compliments! Every time i see my Vx i just fall more in love with it!
