Hambone7o7 Posted April 4, 2015 Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 first off trust me when I say I have been reading through these forums for a ridiculous amount of time. Just want straight up answers and some pics. I finally decided to hit up SSNORCAL and picked up some TBSS 22". Now just need to decide what tire size to go with on a 3/4 drop. there is a lot of conflicting information on here. so lets see some pics of TBSS with 285/40 vs 305/40. does it even make a difference driving wise? what rubs? am I overthinking this?

Blick05SS Posted April 4, 2015 Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 I run a 285 on mine and it slightly rubs on full lock turns but i really never do that. Mine is a 3/4 drop as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JC03SS Posted April 4, 2015 Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 A 285/45/22 looks great and won't rub. It's gonna be up to you how fat of a tire you want. Like stated above Butch's looks great with his combo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A_FUrious Posted April 4, 2015 Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 http://tire-size-conversion.com/tire-height-calculator/ Stock wheel and tire 275-55/20. Anything outside total wheel diameter will rub at full crank. More tire surface area gives better traction but less MPG since more surface also equals resistance. Sounds like 285-40's are a good size and if Butch is happy with it, I'd go with it. I run a 285 on mine and it slightly rubs on full lock turns but i really never do that. Mine is a 3/4 drop as well What wall size did you go with Butch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jroc Posted April 7, 2015 Report Share Posted April 7, 2015 how much are you rubbing? just on full lock? just full lock to the right on flat pavement, rubs in other places if the trucks on uneven ground but nothing to major Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
