Default pic request: 285/75r16 duratracs on steelies

Thinking about going back to my steelies to save some money and for ease of maintenance but they look pretty weak unless theyve got something beefy on them so id like to see how they look with a 285 75 r16 or similar, slightly smaller is ok too

Thanks, I'm running it without wheel spacers and everything fits perfectly. One minor thing is when I turn the steering full lock there is some minor rubbing going on. But it doesn't happen often enough to be a bother.

These are alloy, but they are 285/75/R16

Ok So I am looking to do 285 on my 2 door jk soon and I saw this post so I decided to see if you had any more pics on your page and I couldn't help to notice I have the same Yakima bike rack for mine and was wondering if you have any issues with to much weight with bikes on stock spare tire carrier with the 33. Thanks!

The only problem I can see, right now, is that I'm going to have to extend the bump stop thingys.
