    I don't like math, or calculators....

    I'm sure the guys at the shop can give me an idea.

    Scott Harness, you have BFG M/Ts, what size are your tires again? 70 or 75?

    You will lose 0.52 of an inch in sidewall with the 70 series. The 75's are a 31.65inch tire and the 70's are a 30.61, so you are losing an inch of tire height.

    since we have the same wheels...

    Bart,
    i ran into this dilemma when getting my tires last year. You wouldn't think that *little* difference is much, but it (was) can be. I trimmed more than i thought i would with 265-70-16...

    but aren't you lifting??

    Yes, so I should be fine with 75s, I think....

    You're a hacker, you'll be fine! I am running 32.3" tires with offset 8.5" rims and the basic 912 lift. You won't have to hack near as much as I did.
