    255s will not fit the front with fender flares

      It's the tire diameter that is the problem up front, along with clearance on the inner suspension. 24.4 inches really is the biggest one can go, and it is still slightly problematic.

        We run 255's all around with a 17x8.25 front, and 17x9.75 in the rear. But we do run the DTMfiberwerkz fender flares.

        Next year we will likely go to 17.9.75's all the way around with 255 Hankook TD's.
