I don't understand how my tires rub when I have a 285/65...? They said that my tires were in the extreme fit category over at discount tire.

your rims. its the backspacing. if they continue to rub a lot i would get like an inch or 1.5 inch spacer. itll help. i think your backspacing is wrong. what backspacing do you have on your rims?

Well here they are. Tire shop said there was no problem mounting the 315's on my stock 7in rims. I cranked the torsion bars to get them on and now I guess I will rock the Cali Lean until I convert the rear air to springs and do the 3in aluminum spacers from ebay. But hey, 35's baby! lol

oh, and the guy I swapped my 285's with paid the $128 bill to have them mounted and balanced, PLUS gave me $100. So I couldnt really pass up the offer.

How has the tread been wearing for you? I am looking to get 315's here within 2 weeks ( currently run old 285's ) and wanted to see how the tread wear has been with the 315's on the stock rims....
