nice, excited to see the finish product. I am getting an AEV 2.5" lift soon and I wish I went 285/75r17. On a side note I do have Vtec brand wheels and like them

What makes you say that you would have went with the 285/75? What did you go with?

I went with 285/70R17 Duratracs (33s) and I think the 285/75r17 (34s) Look much better with the 2.5" lift. I am very happy with my tires (awesome in the snow) but I didn't think I was going to put a lift on it, then after getting my front bumper, seeing the sag, and hitting some trails. I wanted to do a lift for a little more ground clearance and to fix the sag properly. I only have 5000 Miles on my tires so it will probably be awaile before I upgrade. I love the way the 315/70R17 Duratracs look with a 2.5", but I need to keep the tread under my flares and the 285s are perfect.
