I never said couldnt, I said wouldnt. Thats almost 3" off each side of the rim. And im running the black Pro Comps in 16x10 with a 35x13.50 MT bias ply claws and they look just right. I dont have new pics up yet so the old ones are 33"s

Think I'm going to get the Parnelli Jones Dirt Grip 33x12.5R16 with cragar 397 soft 8. Suppose to be awesome in the sand but have some highway noise. Hardtop should help with that...although the MickyT ATZ are about 220$ cheaper after buying 5.

If this is your daily driver, as mine is, I would consider the Pro Comp Xtreme AT's. They have a 40,000 tread life warranty. Low road noise. I'm happy with mine.

Yes they are very nice but too pricey and I can't find them in 305/70R16 or 33/12.5R16

I guess I was looking on the wrong website. I found them in 315/75R16 for 207$, but thats a 34.6" tire... do you think that would rub too much? I'll probably get them even if it requires the 2" lift.
