    After a ton a waffling about size and reading other forum posts, I finally got a lift installed and new tires. I went with the at3ws in 255/80r17. The lift is Bilstein 6112s maxed out, 5100s in the rear with Bilstein 1.5 springs. There's absolutely no rubbing at all, and I think I could have gone with a 34" tire if it was skinny enough. Hope this helps anybody agonizing over tire size.

    Looks good! I really wanted to run this size tire, but I hate that they only come in load range. E. How's the drivability been with the heavier tire?

    I had a small crisis when my installer said he had a hard time getting them on cuz they're so stiff, but they drive beautifully. They're quite and smooth, better than stock I think. Of course that could be the 6112s.

    Thanks for sharing! I am now thinking Toyos. They seem to be lighter. What springs did you use in the front?

    I used Bilsteins eq series standard springs. I forgot to mention I also had Bilstein b8 ucas installed. Steering is definitely a bit heavier with the at3ws, any weight savings you can get will help

    32-33 cold seems to be perfect. It's so hot here rn that they've gotten up to like 38, they start to get a little noisy at higher psi but nothing crazy.

    I decided on 255/80/17 in the Falken Wildpeak AT4W after much research. To my surprise it just barely scrubbed my drivers side mudflap but only while turning and compressed. After an alignment there is no scrubbing at all. The ride is very good as well. I’m on Bilstein 6112’s in the front and 5100’s in the rear.

    Mall crawling! I decided to go with Goodyear Duratracs 255/80r17. Zero rubbing and running a 6112/5160 lift (3in) with Dobinsons UCA.

    Looks great guys! I was just reading about tire pressure today and realized I had been running mine like 10 pounds low. With e load the sidewall is supposed to run with way higher pressure. Used an online calculator and it says to run 42 cold. I just filled up to 44 hot and the ride is a little stiffer but not in a bad way.
