I've got 255/85 BFG MT's on my 110, with deep dish alloys (almost the same as boost)

They fill the arches nicely, and don't rub at all (I've got spacers on now, but even without them they're fine)

Edited to add: I've got factory HD springs front and back, but with the weight of the winch & nudgebar on the front, that sits at "normal" height anyway.

It's so that when on full droop, the panhard rod doesn't rub on the edge of the guard... it used to when i had it on my 90, only just "rubbing" but made a horrid screeech noise.


I'll check innovate for the interclub thingy Thumbs Up
