255/80-17 KM2's 2DR JK Wrangler
 
When I was considering these tires I would have liked to have some pictures like these, So when I mounted them I snapped these shots. By the way the tires are perfect, just the profile I was looking for, Mounted on these standard rims the come in at 80Lbs measured on a scale, Stock SRA's on equally stock rims was 59Lbs.

how do they drive? Do you have any stability issues? My only concern with them is that the stance would be too narrow. Are you running wheel spacers at all? What do they end up measuring mounted? Do you have a side shot of your jeep? Looks good tho!

They are of course a rougher louder ride than the SRA's The stability and on freeway is fine. Yes, there are wheel spacers under there, You don't need them for this wheel tire combination. I just like the wider track. By the way these are running at 30Psi.
Side shot.

Looking good. I wish I could run those, but they would suck so much ass here in the winter, it's not even funny.

I used a Pro-Cal to set my PCM. 32.5" matched my speedometer to two different GPS's so it's probably real close to 32.5"

I ran the 285 KM2 all last winter, and I live in Canada. Hey man, its a Jeep, you'll be fine. A little common sense, and not to crazy on the highway. You just have to plan your breaking a little earlier and don't tailgate anyone.

No real lift, 19/59 springs and 3/4" Spacers in the front. But thats it, does wonders in the two door. Fox Shox.
