are those the terra grapplers? i was looking at those same size tires as well. im wondering what kind of mpg hit we would take going from the 275/60 to the 295/60. anybody have any ideas? with the way gas prices are im wondering if its better to get 275/65 in the terra grapplers. or would there not be much difference between the two.

I was anxiously waiting for your pictures...they look good!

How close are they to your upper ball joint?

Nice truck! Welcome to the site. I too am very interested in the rubbing issue due to the fact I will be getting new tires before long.
