    Stock everything with 285/60-18 tires:




    Thanks Sue....and I did reference your past posts regarding your 285/60r18 Terra Grapplers. Your posts helped me a great deal.
    Also: I wanted to tell you that the Terra Grapplers are now offered in a 285/65r18.
    The TRAIL Grapplers have always been available in the 285/65r18, but not the TERRA Grapplers.
    I guess that perhaps Nitto had requests for the 285/65 and decided to offer it in the TERRA's.
    Would like to fit the 33's (285/65's), but I know it will be tight with only a torsion tweak.
    I will do some serious measuring and likely will attempt the 285/65.
    Surely some trimming and likely a bit of hammering will be needed to get em to fit with no issues.
    As far as what specific tire...haven't decided between TRAIL, TERRA, or something else??
    Will keep everyone updated!

    That's great to hear the Terras are now available in 285/65 - more meat!

    I think "JeeperKate" has the TRAIL grapplers…can recall size right now, but I know she posted pics and info.

    Can't wait to see BOTH of youz guz setups!
