Just ordered my HBS 2" Kit - tire size opinions?
I just ordered my HBS 2" Kit, and was planning on BFG AT/KO's in 285/65 R20's for the wheels I found on Craigslist. Those wheels are -12 offset, so will stick out approx. 1.25" further than stock, then add the wider tire and I will get to about 1.75" further in total.
I made the decision on tire size based on not putting anymore stress on the wheel bearings etc. than necessary and for mpg's.
Ramhunter9 has given me a price on those, very competitive, but they ain't exactly cheap.
So now I'm thinking for the money I could go up to 35's.
I'm worried they will be super heavy, shutting down the MDS, killing the MPG's, and stressing the bearings etc. etc.
I'm guessing the size would be 12.5" wide on the average 35's? That would have me sticking out like 2 plus inches from stock... ugh, I'm not sure which way I should be looking. Any input would appreciated.
