Is this for real?
I don't believe this, send a picture of that sucker sitting in the grass and I'll pat you on the back for seeing the light. Good luck...

well over the past few years and the many times i had to research tires sizes and wheel combos, ive used tire calculaters and along with that ive found out that the data these "calculators" put out is an approximate set of numbers. i used this one here... http://www.miata.net/garage/tirecalcold.html and thats how i got my numbers. i put my tire size in the old tire set and 285/55/18 in the new tire set...

first number is tire width in mm (285 for example)
Divide by 25.4 and you will have the tire width in inches (285/25.4= 11.22 inches)
The next number is aspect ration, give percentage of tire width that is the sidewall height (11.22*0.55=6.17)
To find the overall height of the tire (or diameter) take the sidewall height double it (6.17*2=12.34) then add it to the wheel diameter (12.34+18+30.34) (12.34+20=32.34).
This is how the online calculators work, they use the above to calculate it an approximate the specs.
oefootball_70 I think they will like fine with that drop.

Mine is 4x4 with just drop shackle (McGaughy 2" drop shackles). I haven't had time to take pics since I installed them on Saturday. I have been to busy with school and its dark now. I will try to get some tomorrow and post them up.
