RE: discouraging tire measurements

It will more than likely be a few days before I can measure anything. Sorry,
but I just have too many things going on this weekend. But, at full lock, my
tires rub at the front on the frame. Everywhere else there is at least 1/4"
clearance in every direction through the full sweep of the wheels from lock
to lock. There is far more above the tire naturally. I have the same truck
as you so there shouldn't be any issues, but with the factory 15X8 wheels.
I'm not sure which ones you have so that could make a difference. FWIW, I
had Discount Tires order in a single tire and mount it on one of my wheels
for free to do a fit check. They agreed to do this since I told them I was
going to buy a full set of tires no matter what.

I'd like to know the real dimensions of those 33X10.5-15 BFG AT's that
John is running, and if you could, what things look like at full lock -
so I'd have a prayer of knowing what narrower/taller or fatter/shorter
would do, and what real dimension I *know* I can fit since it doesn't
look to me like what you're running ought to fit.
