That's the right tire size I think but it's about an inch more in diameter than the stock 285/45/22 and the 295/35/24, so a little trimming/reshaping of the liners might be required. At least you don't have the power steps getting in the way. :)

I have had Falken and Parelli. The Parelli's are much better but cost more. I heard there are some off brands that cost much less and are pretty good.

Yeah I use 305/30/26. Even on stock hight it rubs at full lock and in the rear. I think my offset is just a little to low that causes the issue. As my front tires stick out from fender about a 1/4 inch. I wish I would have went with 295. I am also not on my drop yet. Which should be soon as it is sitting in my garage.

305/30/26 works for me and I wouldn't change to a 295 for the .5 difference in circumference. Plus I'd rather deal with a little rub from time to time for the extra protection from potholes, curbs, etc.

I rub a bunch on stock height, but that is also because my offset is a little to low.
