Hi Earl--- No harm, no foul. Actually, I feel pretty proud of you because you took one of my first initial suggestions in using the Yokohama Geo in 275/60R18 (31" O.D./42 lbs) that I recommended in a very early E-Mail to you. Fellow VX member "ScottinMA" had very simular difficulty with his wide 9" rims and we found that the Yoko was the only true A/T manufactured in that size that still allowed "swing arc" clearance on the VX.
Your VX looks simply stunning with a "Tom4Bren" kinda' flair. If you had heavy 285/65R18 (60 lb) tires on your VX before, then I'm sure your VX is extremely nimble now with a very sporty feel. Well done, Earl.![]()
