I also have 275/60 BFG Radial TA's on all four corners with no problem. Keep
in mind that this is on a '97, and so is Eddies so I'm not sure about the
clearance issues with a '92. Also, you might want to talk to Brian Lee before
you try the conversion. I sold him my factory 15x8s to go on his older body
style dak and he had fitment problems with the fronts.

<< Steve, I have 275/60 Dunlop Sport Rover GTX's on my stock 15 x 8 wheels.
275's in the rear and 235's in the front. There is a guy on the list, Eddie
Estoppey who has the 275's all around. The Sport Rovers stick and look great.
Regards, Bob
