langston1726 Posted January 9, 2019 Posted January 9, 2019 Just installed some Method Racing Double Standards on some 315/70/17 Bfg KO2s. Trucks got a 2” level so yes it rubs and needs to be trimmed but I’m in love with the look. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2

Curious what's needed to run this tire size Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Haven’t had a chance to cut all I need to cut but I will post pics when I’m done. It’s drivable right now but definitely needs some more clearance. I think I may raise the front another 0.5”. That should helpSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
langston1726 Posted January 9, 2019 Posted January 9, 2019 Just for reference. 315/70/17 Bfg v 275/70/18 Falken Wildpeak I didn’t rub at all with the Falkens on stock wheels. The new Methods are a 0 offset which definitely doesn’t help with the rubbing. The Bfg is right at 34.5” on this 8.5 wide rim. The Falkens are just over 33” Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

However a 315/70/17 comes out to around 34.4 when you do the calculation. Mine are measuring 34.5. Most guys just call these 35s though. The Falkens are pretty beefy. We have some 285/70/17 Falkens on my wife’s Tahoe and there right at a 33.

Damn that's big, my nitto g2's in 295/70/17 are a little under 33 mounted on the rear. Guess I won't be afraid to go with the falkens next time around for fear of them being too small. Speaking of, pics of said Tahoe? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
